Moscow airports suspend flights briefly as drone hits site in city centre, with two others brought down across the region
These random building attacks feel like a red flag operation. They don’t serve a military objective, they do more to mobilize the population. I just don’t see Ukraine targeting random buildings in Moscow downtown. If they’re going to go that close. They’re going to hit something military

they do more to mobilize the population.
Mobilize the population?
Most of the population doesn’t give a fuck about their country invading Ukraine because they have their heads comfortably in the sand. Those who aren’t ignoring it, either already fully support it or are fully against it.
“This is affecting me now. I don’t like it” is the more likely response you’d see from the majority. They just want things to be how they were, and them going to the front is the exact opposite of it.
This “it could anger and provoke the Russians” rhetoric is not rooted in reality.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
A drone hit a building under construction in central Moscow early on Wednesday, the city’s mayor, Sergei Sobyanin, has said, in what AFP reported was the sixth straight night of aerial attacks on Russia’s capital region.
The Russian military downed two more drones over the western part of the Moscow region, the mayor said on his Telegram channel.
A loud explosion was heard in the capital’s central district on Wednesday morning, a short while after flights were suspended at the city’s airports, Russia’s RIA news agency reported.
The news agency published video showing a large plume of white smoke rising from the place where the explosion was heard.
“At night, air defence forces thwarted another attempt by the Kyiv regime to carry out a terrorist attack by three aircraft-type unmanned aerial vehicles on the city of Moscow,” the ministry said.
Flights at several Moscow airports were also temporarily suspended on Tuesday as a security precaution amid drone attacks, authorities said.
