Moscow Repels Wave of 37 Ukrainian Drones in Second Day of Attacks
For the second consecutive day, Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin reported a mass Ukrainian drone incursion over the Russian capital on June 19, 2026. Russian air defenses intercepted 37 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) between 12:10 PM and 2:12 PM local time. While no ground hits were reported during this specific daytime wave, the persistence of the attacks following the previous night's refinery strike indicates a sustained campaign to expose vulnerabilities in the deep Russian rear.
