London – Hundreds of Ukraine drones crossed to Russia overnight until Wednesday morning, dozens were targeting Moscow and once again causing interference with flights in and out of the capital, according to officials there.
The Russian Ministry of Defense said his troops shot down 296 Ukraine drones over 12 regions-including the Moscow Capital-the last round of the long-distance attack.
Governor Moscow Andrei Vorobyov said about Telegram that at least 42 drones fell over the region. Vorobyov reported damage to three houses in the city of Chekhov around 40 miles south of the capital.
Sheremetyevo Moscow International Airport – One of the four international airports in the capital – also warned the delayed travelers because of the flight restrictions imposed during the latest drone attacks. Last weeks have seen routine disorders to Moscow Airport during such attacks.

Andriy Kovalenko, Head of the Cons Information Center which operates as part of the Ukraine National Security and Defense Council, said that in Telegram there were “some quite good hit” during the attack on Tuesday night.
Among the targets are the Dubna-Machine Development factory involved in the production of aviation technology, missiles and drones, said Kovalenko-in the City of Dubna, about 70 miles north of Moscow.
Kovalenko said the Elma-Zelenograd Technopark facility-hosting the development of microelectronics, IT, robotics and medical equipment was also targeted. The “facility” is one of the centers where the substitution of importing critical components previously imported from the West occurred, “said Kovalenko.
ABC News cannot immediately verify Covalenko claims about successful attacks on facilities.
Russia continued the long distance attack on Ukraine last night. The Ukraine Air Force said Moscow launched six missiles and 88 strike drones to the country, where 71 drones were shot down or neutralized. The Air Force said it recorded an impact on eight locations.
The intensity of the strike by both parties has only increased since the return of President Donald Trump to the office in January, the President has promised to end the Russian war on his neighbor’s war in 24 hours. Trump has not fulfilled that promise, and his frustration seems to have been built in recent weeks with a continuous failure of the US weapons.
Trump said Putin was “really crazy” in a social media post on Sunday, so on Tuesday said Putin “did not realize that if it was not for me, many very bad things would happen to Russia, and I mean very bad. He played with fire!”

The US and Ukraine are now waiting for Russia to provide peace memorandum – a document promised by Putin to Trump during a telephone call between the two leaders earlier this month. Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Maria Zakharova said Tuesday that Moscow was still working on the document.
Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy doubted the Russian proposal. “They have spent more than a week for this,” he wrote on social media on Tuesday. “They talked a lot about diplomacy. But when, in the middle of all that, there was a constant Russian attack, constant murder, endless attacks, and even preparation for new attacks.”
On Wednesday, Andriy Yermak – Head of President Zelenskyy’s office – wrote in Telegram, “Russia is the ruler of empty words.”
