Apartment building hit and debris falls on highway, according to reports, with major airports serving Russian capital temporarily closed

• Ukraine war briefing: Moscow drone raids, new Kursk incursion

Ukrainian drones targeted Moscow for the second night in a row, forcing the temporary closure of the capital’s airports, Russia’s military reported.

The consecutive attacks came ahead of Moscow marking this week the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Soviet Union and its allies over Germany in the second world war. Vladimir Putin has tried to call a three-day ceasefire for the 8-10 May anniversary; however Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, has characterised the idea as self-serving and pointless unless it lasts 30 days in line with a US proposal that Putin has ignored.
