Russia has been bombarded in the biggest Ukrainian drone attack of the war, Moscow officials have said, on the same day as crunch talks are set to be held between Kyiv and the United States.

The Russian Defence Ministry said air defences shot down 337 Ukrainian drones over 10 Russian regions overnight, a record high, as Ukraine hit back at a series of brutal recent attacks launched by Moscow.

At least one Russian civilian has been killed and several injured, with dramatic footage showing fires raging from the exploding drones including in high rise residential buildings near Moscow.

      Idk, I think the financiers directly profiting off US resource wars and bookkeeping for the pentagon had more to do with the war than random schoolchildren and grandmas sleeping far away from any military targets.

        What about the janitors, cleaners and other regular people working in the building, perhaps the passengers of those planes?

        I mean if you are fine with that sort of collateral damage then I don’t see why you wouldn’t be fine when it happens to Russia. Wouldn’t want to be hypocritical…

          Pot, kettle. You are apparently fine with it happening to Russian citizens, but against it happening to yanks. Maybe look in the mirror a bit harder

            Buddy, I’m not the one who wrote that original message. Maybe look at the usernames a bit harder. I didn’t write anything about being against it happening to Yanks.

            Like said, wouldn’t want to be hypocritical.
