Ukrainian drone strikes in Russia’s Moscow region result in at least one death and multiple injuries involving an Indian national, according to reports from both outlets. The Times of India says one Indian worker dies and three others are injured in the strike. Deccan Chronicle also reports that an Indian worker is killed in the drone attack and notes Zelenskyy’s public confirmation of the strikes.
Both sources attribute statements to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who describes the attack as “entirely justified,” framing it as retaliation for Russia’s ongoing actions in Ukraine. The Times of India adds further detail on the scale of the Russian response, saying Russian air defences intercept hundreds of drones during what it describes as one of the largest offensives of the war.
The reports present the event through competing national perspectives: Ukraine confirms and justifies the strikes, while Russia emphasizes interception and defensive measures. Neither outlet provides additional information on the exact location of the Indian workers’ presence or the full casualty breakdown beyond the figures reported.
