In the Ramensky urban district of the Moscow region, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are reportedly downed while heading towards the capital. There are currently no reports of any casualties.

This information surfaced on the morning of November 10 in Russian Telegram channels. The first images from the scene of the incident are also being published there.

Some photos show smoke rising from one of the areas in the mentioned district.

Mayor of Moscow Sergey Sobyanin stated in his Telegram channel that there are supposedly no damages in the Ramensky district.

"The Ministry of Defense’s air defense forces have repelled an attack by two drones targeting Moscow in the Ramensky urban district. Preliminary reports indicate that there are no damages or casualties at the crash site. Emergency service specialists are working at the incident location," — he said, later reporting the downing of two more UAVs.

He then mentioned that another eight drones heading towards Moscow were reportedly shot down by the Ministry of Defense’s air defense forces in the urban districts of Ramenki, Domodedovo, and Kolomna.

According to the SHOT public, citing its own sources, a "Carpet" Plan has been implemented at Moscow's Vnukovo and Domodedovo airports due to the threat of a drone attack. This means a closed sky regime for all aircraft. All planes and helicopters currently in the air must immediately land or exit the designated area.

Currently, several flights heading to Moscow are in a holding pattern, while a few others have been delayed.

In total, over the last hour, reports indicate that 17 UAVs targeting Moscow have been shot down in the Moscow region. The last five were downed in the urban districts of Ramenskoye and Domodedovo.

Baza reports that two private homes caught fire, reportedly due to debris from a drone falling in the village of Stanovoye in the Ramensky district of the Moscow region.

"According to preliminary data, one house was destroyed, and the roof of another is on fire. A passing car was also damaged," — the statement reads.

Recall that earlier "Telegraf" reported that on the night of November 10, explosions shook the Russian city of Bryansk and a fire broke out. Drones attacked a military facility.
