Ukraine strikes Russia with over 1,000 drones, hitting Moscow refinery

Ukraine launched an attack with over 1,000 drones targeting Russia, including Moscow, early on September 20, according to officials. The assault occurred on the final day of Russia's parliamentary election. Russia's Defense Ministry reported shooting down 1,110 Ukrainian drones across the country, Crimea, and the Black Sea. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said 450 drones were destroyed, with a refinery and residential building damaged, calling it an unprecedented attack. The attack killed three people and injured 20 in the Moscow region. Russian authorities framed the strike as an attempt to disrupt the election, which is expected to solidify the ruling party's control.
