MOSCOW - Ukrainian drones have the capability of striking up to 2,500 kilometres into Russia, but the capital Moscow has been protected from their strikes, a senior Russian airforce official warned on Wednesday.

Bogdanov said measures had been taken to protect Moscow, the Russian capital, from Ukrainian drone attacks and that other regions were working on their defences. Ukraine does not officially confirm or deny it is attacking refineries inside Russia, but it says such sites are legitimate targets as they aid Moscow's military effort at a time when Russian strikes are pounding Ukrainian infrastructure, including energy facilities.
