Ukraine Says War Is Gradually Coming Back To Russia

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned war is coming back to Russia after a drone attack on the capital Moscow.

Mr. Zelensky said attacks on Russian territory were an “inevitable, natural and absolutely fair process” of the war between the two countries.

Russia’s defence ministry said three Ukrainian drones were downed on Sunday, with two crashing into offices.

Vnukovo airport, southwest of the city centre, was also briefly shut.

The drone attack in the early hours of Sunday is the latest that Moscow has blamed on Kyiv.

And in a video address on Sunday from the western Ukrainian city of Ivano-Frankivsk, Mr Zelensky said that Ukraine was getting stronger.

Former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev said on Sunday that Moscow would have to use a nuclear weapon if Kyiv’s ongoing counter-offensive was a success.

The Russian Defence Ministry said three drones were intercepted. It, however, said that a business and shopping development in Moscow’s west was hit.

No casualties were reported in the drone attack. However, the fifth and sixth floors of a 50-storey building were damaged, CNN reported citing TASS news agency.

Earlier, Ukrainian Minister Mykhailo Fedorov had said there would be more drone strikes to come as Ukraine ramps up a counteroffensive aimed at pushing Russian troops out of Ukrainian territory, according to CNN.

Ukraine earlier claimed responsibility for a strike on Monday that struck two non-residential buildings. Russia termed the incident a “terrorist attack.” On Friday, Russia said it shot down a Ukrainian missile over the Taganrog. However, Ukraine did not issue any statement regarding Russia’s claim.
