Russia: Authorities responding to drone strikes in multiple areas in Moscow Oblast as of early Sept. 10
Crews responding to drone strikes in Ramenskoye and nearby areas, Moscow Oblast, Russia, early Sept. 10. Tight security likely.
Authorities are responding to several drone strike attempts targeting Moscow Oblast as of early Sept. 10. Preliminary reports suggest at least one attack targeting Ramenskoye, with unconfirmed accounts of at least one death and up to three injuries. Reports also indicate a fire at Zhukovsky International Airport (ZIA), though it is not immediately clear if it was due to a strike or debris from a downed drone.
Heightened security and localized business and transport disruptions are likely in the coming hours as emergency response continues. Flight disruptions are ongoing at ZIA and Vnukovo International Airport (VKO). Lingering flight delays are possible after regular services resume as airlines work to clear backlogs.
Monitor official channels for notifications of incoming drone attacks. Seek cover or remain indoors in the event of reports of drone activity, and remain in cover until the all-clear is given. During drone attacks, stay away from windows and walls bordering outdoor areas. Reconfirm flight schedules at VKO and ZIA.
