Moscow News, December 15, 2025, Avia.pro. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin reported that the Russian Ministry of Defense's air defense forces destroyed unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) flying toward the capital. The incident occurred late in the evening, around 23:00 PM Moscow time, prompting an immediate response from city authorities. According to Sobyanin, emergency services are already at the site of the crash, inspecting the area and ensuring the safety of residents.

The drone's downing is further confirmation of ongoing attacks on Russian cities, particularly in light of recent drone activity over border and central regions, including the Volgograd and Rostov Oblasts. The exact location of the debris impact and its impact on infrastructure have not yet been determined, but the mayor urged Muscovites to remain calm and follow government orders.
