Russian security authorities “received a report that an unknown drone was spotted in the sky above Vnukovo Airport; for security reasons, the airspace was closed”, a representative of the security forces told TASS.
However, according to the Flight Radar portal, around 20:30 CET, a plane bound for Krasnoyarsk took off from this airport located southwest of the Russian capital.
The Russian-language BBC service reports that several drones have crashed in the Moscow region in recent hours. According to the Telegram channel Baza, a drone loaded with 17 kilograms of explosives fell on Sunday near the gardening colony in Noginsk, east of Moscow. It was a Ukrainian-made UJ-22 Airborne machine with a length of 3.5 meters. He must have run out of fuel.
