Russian air defense systems shot down four Ukrainian drones flying to Moscow on Saturday. The city's mayor said that a major airport in the capital also temporarily suspended outbound flights. Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said the emergency department was rescuing the area where the crashed drone was located, but did not disclose any information about possible damage. The Russian Ministry of Defense said on Saturday that 94 drones were destroyed in Russia during the night, and another 45 drones were shot down between 08:00 and 13:50 Moscow Standard Time. The Russian Aviation Administration said that departing flights from Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport were temporarily suspended on Saturday and then resumed operation. According to the agency, the reason for the grounding was due to “restrictions” in the capital's airspace and strong winds.
