Three people have died in a night of intense shelling across Ukraine while Moscow's second-largest airport briefly suspended flights following a foiled drone attack near the Russian capital.

A woman in her eighties was also killed by Ukrainian shelling in Russian-held Donetsk, the city’s Moscow-appointed mayor Alexei Kulemzin said Sunday. Moscow’s Vnukovo airport located 15 kilometers southwest of the Russian capital briefly suspended flights Sunday morning after a drone was shot down in the airspace around the city.

Flights were last halted at the airport on July 30, when two drones crashed into the Moscow City business district after being jammed by Russian air defenses. The bombardment reportedly included cruise missiles launched from aircraft over the Caspian Sea and Iranian-made Shahed-136/131 strike UAVs.
