Ukrainian Drone Attack Forces Restriction of Flights Near Moscow, Russia Says

A surprise Ukrainian drone strike overnight halted flights at 13 major Russian airports ahead of a historic Moscow parade marking the 80th anniversary of World War II's end, as Kyiv repeatedly demonstrated its ability to target deep into Russian territory. Air defenses swiftly responded, shutting down the airports for parts of Tuesday, though flights resumed by morning. This marks the latest in Ukraine's recent practice of using long-range drones to throw Russian air defenses off their toes ahead of planned attacks.
