A woman has been killed in Moscow after the remnants of a downed Ukrainian drone hit the apartment block where she was living and started a fire, according to Russian officials.

Moscow regional Governor Andrei Vorobyov said debris from the drone damaged at least two high-rise apartment buildings in the Ramenskoye district in the early hours of Tuesday, setting several flats on fire.

“According to preliminary information, there is no damage or injuries at the site of the fall of the debris,” Moscow’s Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said.

Sobyanin said the drones were destroyed in the Lyubertsy and Ramenskoye districts of the Moscow region, as well as in the Podolsk city district. Podolsk is some 38 km (24 miles) south of the Kremlin.

Russia’s SHOT and Baza Telegram channels, which are close to Russia’s security services, said flights at Moscow’s Vnukovo and Domodedovo airports have been suspended while the drone attacks were taking place.

Alexander Bogomaz, the governor of Russia’s southwestern Bryansk region that borders Ukraine, said air defense units destroyed 59 drones over the region overnight. There was no damage or injuries, he said on Telegram.

Several drones were also downed in Russia’s Lipetsk region, several hundred kilometers south of Moscow, the region’s governor Igor Artamonov, said on Telegram. He also reported no injuries or serious damage.

Russian officials often do not disclose the full extent of damage inflicted by Ukrainian attacks.

Reuters could not independently verify the reports. There was no immediate comment from Ukraine.

Kyiv has said attacks on Russia’s military, transport, and energy infrastructure are in response to Moscow’s attacks on its territory since the start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 202
