Ukraine launched more than 400 drones toward Moscow on July 20, one of the largest such attacks on the Russian capital to date. The barrage came hours after Russia bombarded Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities with ballistic missiles.
Both sides have continued to escalate their tit-for-tat strikes, with the Russian bombardment causing deadly casualties and Ukraine intensifying drone attacks on Moscow in response. Officials said the exchanges have also affected infrastructure and energy facilities on both sides.
Observers following the exchanges say the cycle shows little sign of slowing in the near term. International calls for a ceasefire continue, but conditions on the ground point to sustained tension in both capitals.
