Ukraine launched 637 drones at Moscow and the surrounding region between Wednesday night and Tuesday morning, Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said, marking one of the largest air assaults on the Russian capital since the start of the war.

Russian forces downed 180 of the drones over the Moscow region, Sobyanin said, adding that emergency personnel were dispatched to the crash sites. He did not report any damage or injuries.

Drones hit a warehouse of the e-commerce giant Wildberries and other sites near Moscow, regional Governor Andrei Vorobyov said in a separate statement. At least three people, including a 10-year-old girl, were injured across the region, he added.

Wildberries confirmed that falling drone debris caused minor damage to the wall of its warehouse in the Moscow region.

Images shared on social media appeared to show smoke rising from high-rise apartment buildings under construction following the attacks in the Moscow region.

Mosoblenergo, a regional energy provider, said more than 5,000 customers were without power after drones struck infrastructure providing electricity to homes.

Several other regions, including annexed Crimea, also reported heavy overnight attacks from Ukraine.

Krymenergo, the Crimean peninsula's largest power supplier, said several towns in the southern part of the peninsula were without electricity following Ukrainian drone strikes.

Meanwhile, in Ukraine, authorities said Russian overnight strikes killed at least 10 people in the northeastern Kharkiv region.
