Ukraine has launched its largest drone attack on Moscow in two years, with more than four hundred and thirty drones targeting the Russian capital and surrounding regions overnight.
Russia's Defence Ministry says it intercepted more than four hundred and fifty drones across the country, while all four of Moscow's major airports imposed temporary flight restrictions during the barrage.
The attack comes as NATO leaders gather in Ankara for a summit at which major new military assistance for Ukraine is expected to be pledged.
