Summary:

  • Ukrainian President Zelensky justifies war returning to Russian territory after drone attack on Moscow.
  • The recent attack damaged an office block in Moscow, the fourth attempt on the capital region this month.
  • One person injured in the attack; another drone crashed near Tuganruk, a Russian city on the sea of Asov.
  • Ukraine previously avoided claiming responsibility for attacks in Russia, but President Zelensky's recent remarks indicate a shift.

Following a drone attack on Moscow over the weekend, Ukrainian President Vlodomir Zelensky says that it is absolutely fair and inevitable that the war is returning to Russian territory. An office block in Moscow was damaged by the attack on Sunday morning. It was the fourth attempted strike on the capital region this month and the third this week. According to Russian state news, one person, a security guard, was injured. On Sunday evening, another drone crashed near the Russian city of Tuganruk. The town sits on the sea of Asov, 40 kilometers away from the Ukrainian border. Ukraine has previously avoided claiming responsibility for attacks in Russian territory.


Inevitability of War's Return to Russian Territory


Ukrainian President Vlodomir Zelensky has broken away from previous traditions and seemingly justified the decision to take the war to the streets of Russia. The recent drone attack on an office block in Moscow further escalated tensions between the two countries.

Repeated Attempts on Moscow Capital Region


Sunday's drone attack marks the fourth attempted strike on the capital region in just this month, and the third incident within the past week. The escalating series of attacks is heightening concerns over the potential for further hostilities.

Casualty and Drone Crash Near Tuganruk


Russian state news reported that a security guard was injured in the attack on the office block in Moscow. Additionally, a separate incident occurred on Sunday evening when another drone crashed near the Russian city of Tuganruk, located on the sea of Asov, approximately 40 kilometers away from the Ukrainian border.

Ukraine's Prior Restraint in Claiming Responsibility


In the past, Ukraine had refrained from claiming responsibility for attacks on Russian territory. However, the recent developments indicate a shift in approach, as President Zelensky appears to justify the actions taken by Ukrainian forces.


As tensions continue to escalate between Russia and Ukraine, the international community closely monitors the situation, hoping for a peaceful resolution to avoid further bloodshed and regional instability.

Ukraine War: Is the defence of Bakhmut a distraction?

Ukraine War: Is the defence of Bakhmut a distraction? I'm joined now by the former senior military intelligence officer, Philip Ingram. Good to see you again, Philip. Now, of course, Russian forces have made some advances in recent days in Bakhmut, but on the whole, there's been very little movement on the front line in recent weeks and months. Why is that? Yeah, well, exactly. Day 374 of Vladimir Putin's 10-day Special Military Operation. And the Russians, we keep talking about this spring offensive. They're probing the front lines in different places. Bakhmut will more detail that in a moment, but further north, up around Kramina and in the south, around Donetsk, they're trying to see where their weakness is in the Ukrainian defences. And they're not really finding any. The things that are influencing at the moment, the weather, the ground is softening up. ...

Why the world was wrong about Putin | Analysis

Why the world was wrong about Putin | Analysis People are packing up in their cars. They're getting out of here. A few days before I found myself standing there on the edge of Kharkiv, watching those first tank shells hit into the apartment blocks in Saltyvka, my editor, Louis Emmanuel, had asked me to come up with something to be published on the day of the war, if the war began, explaining to readers why this was happening. And I was hoping it would never be published. It was, and the answer I came up with was, probably in the simple balance of power. I quote it, Russia's military is at its strongest and most capable since the Cold War. Its public finances are also in good order, and Mr Putin may believe he is well placed to bear the costs of the conflict and inevitable sanctions. We'll come back to that in a second. The West is conversely at a moment of historic econo...

Ukraine War: What missiles have Russia fired?

Ukraine War: What missiles have Russia fired? I mean, he caveated his remarks so that he wasn't departing from the official government line, which is that Ukraine makes the calls here when Ukraine's ready, then Ukraine may negotiate. But the fact that he, that comment we were taking out of context, and people will say that Rishi Sunak believes that there has to be a negotiation at, so at what point are we going to lean on the Ukrainians to negotiate? And I think that in Kiev, I think it won't be very, they won't welcome the fact that he said it. It's also, it's just not true that all wars end at the negotiating table. It's a line we've heard from the beginning, right from the start. People should read a book occasionally. The Second World War did not end in negotiation. One of yours perhaps. Yes. The First World War did not end in a meaningful negotia...
