Russia destroys 90 Ukrainian drones overnight: Defense ministry

Russia's Ministry of Defense said on Friday that air defense systems had destroyed 90 Ukrainian drones over the country and the Black Sea overnight.

In the city of Tver, 181 kilometers (112 miles) northwest of Moscow, local authorities said that seven people had been injured.

Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said that eight drones had been destroyed as they were flying towards the Russian capital. Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport said in a statement that it had suspended departures amid the attacks.

Russia's aviation watchdog said that several other airports had also been briefly closed overnight.
