In the early hours of Sunday morning, Ukrainian drones attacked Moscow. According to Russian reports, one person has been injured and the main airport has been temporarily closed. 

Russia claims it managed to shoot down 23 of the 32 Ukrainian drones, however, reports vary. 

Several eye-witness reports published on social media claim the damage has been more extensive than official Russian statements admit:
