Russia claims Ukrainian drone strikes hit two non-residential buildings in Moscow
CNN ^ | July 24, 2023 | Josh Pennington

Ukrainian drones struck two non-residential buildings in Moscow in the early hours of Monday morning and were “suppressed” by defenses there, Russian authorities said, describing the incident a “thwarted” attack.

The strikes caused no serious damage or casualties, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said on Telegram Monday.

Russia’s Ministry of Defense blamed Ukraine, describing the strike as a “terrorist attack of the Kiev regime” and that the two drones were “suppressed” and crashed in Moscow.

Based on Russia attack plan, Ukraine should be hitting residential buildings as well. Shopping centners, malls etc.

Fair is fair.

Looks more like a building either under construction or being repaired after a hail storm. No smoke traces or jagged edges.

Nope, Russia has absolutely no rights except to withdraw all of its troops and return home.

“non-residential buildings”

That is different from Moscow targeting residential buildings

Pocketdoor “Trying to get that WWIII”

Russia invaded Ukraine for the second time in February 2022. The Russian military has been targeting civilian infrastructure in Ukraine for a year now.

Ukraine retaliating after 500 days is not “provoking” - it is retaliating (belatedly).

Secondly - there is no “WWIII” - no other country is willing to fight on the side of Russia - definitely not China, nor Iran. May be Belarus, but even that is a “may be”

Pocketdoor, those are no longer “our” cluster bombs.

They are Ukrainian.
