A drone that was likely targeting civilian infrastructure crashed near Moscow on Tuesday, a regional official said, after the defence ministry reported downing two Ukrainian drones in southern Russia.
The reported incidents are the latest in a series of suspected drone attacks in recent months inside Russia -- sometimes far from the border with Ukraine -- that Moscow has blamed on Kyiv.
"As for the incident with the crash of a UAV in district of Kolomna... the target was probably a civilian infrastructure facility, which was not damaged," Moscow regional governor Andrei Vorobyov said in a statement, referring to unmanned aerial vehicles.
"There are no casualties or damage on the ground. The FSB (security services) and other competent authorities are investigating," Vorobyov said.
Authorities have not specified what infrastructure may have been targeted, but Russian energy giant Gazprom operates a facility near the village of Gubastovo, where the drone crashed.
Gazprom told Russian state-run news agency RIA Novosti that its operations in the Kolomna region were operating uninterrupted.
"There were no emergencies due to the drone crash," its press service said in comments carried by RIA Novosti.

What makes you think that about Putin?
Invade my house/country.
Idiocy. Nuland forced these Ukrainian people into the streets demanding to join the EU and not some Russian-BananaStan Eurasian Economic Bloc. If your two choices were living in the EU or Russia which would you choose?
Protesters flocked to Kiev's Independence Square on Sunday for a rally demanding Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich reject closer Russian ties.
I live in the United States.
Ukraine is not my country.
If Zyyyy did this, it’s dumb, since it will only enrage the Russian people into futher supporting Putin.
I live in the United States.
I think they secretly vote for Biden.
His current term ends in 2024 and I am sure he will be happy to retire.
Myths of him being a dictator circulate among the ignorant.
You're right. This country clearly showed that the Communist organizations such as Black Lives MatterTM and Antifa along with Communist politicians, celebutards, and government employees who rioted in the streets during the Democrat Riots of 2020 represented the will of the people. Did you see all the people? Did you see?
Only a fool would believe that criminals such as George Soros, Klaus Schwab, Alexander Vindman, Yevgeny Vindman, Victoria Nuland, Jao Bai-din, and Hunter Biden support a legitimate government in either the Ukraine or the United States.
So you would prefer to live in Russia vs the EU? That is Ukraine's overwhelming choice, and after experiencing 75 years of Soviet/Russian rule that is understandable. Not sure why you can't seem to understand that.
Yeah... He’s going to retire in 2024... Now Who’s being ignorant? Or is obtuseness that you are demonstrating.
Vlad can run as a candidate in Russia over and over and over again... Thanks to an amendment to the ‘constitution’ (Russia has a constitution?) that passed with overwhelming support (like everybody voted for it) now he can remain president of Russia until 2036. He will be 84 years old when he completes the second of the two additional six-year terms that Russian voters awarded him in a referendum held in June of 2020.
So there’s really only one way out for Vlady... And some patriotic Russian will save the day with a bullet to his head, or maybe even a dose of radionuclide polonium-210 in tribute to Alexander Litvinenko, who exposed Putin for who he really was... A power hungry tyrannical lunatic.
No, they elected a president only to watch Nuland and her globalist conspirators overthrow them.
...just like they stole the election in the United States in 2020. Similarly, they used paid Communist agitators in cities.
