News Clarion synthesisAcross 2 sources

Ukraine launched over 600 drones at Moscow and surrounding areas in one of its largest aerial attacks of the war, with Moscow's air defences intercepting more than 180 drones and reports indicating at least three people were injured and a Wildberries warehouse damaged. Russia responded by warning Britain of "consequences" for supplying drones to Ukraine, claiming British-made unmanned aircraft were used in the strikes. The UK Ministry of Defence rejected the threat, stating Britain remains committed to providing equipment Ukraine needs to defend itself against Russia's invasion.
