Drones attacked Moscow for the second time in a week with at least one hitting a central area not far from government buildings, as Russian news services reported US special envoy Steve Witkoff’s plane had left the country following talks.

Three men have been killed in the Moscow region, in what is described as the largest drone attack on the Russian capital since the start of the full-scale war in Ukraine. A further 18 people, including three children, were injured, health officials told Russian media.
