A skyscraper in Russia’s capital Moscow has been attacked by a drone for the second time in two days according to mayor Sergei Sobyanin.

The mayor said several drones were shot down overnight, but “one flew into the same tower at the Moskva City complex” that was targeted on Sunday.

The building’s glass façade was damaged but no injuries have been reported.

Russia’s defense ministry has blamed Ukraine for the latest attack.

Russia’s defense ministry also revealed that two more Ukrainian drones were shot down by anti-aircraft systems elsewhere in the Moscow region, claiming to have thwarted a Ukrainian “terrorist attack”.

Moscow has repeatedly accused Ukraine of carrying out drone strikes on its territory in recent months, including one on the Kremlin – President Vladimir Putin’s official residence in the capital – back in May
