Ukraine's Massive Drone Attacks on Russia Has Forced Closure of All Major Airports in Moscow According to a report by the BBC News on Sunday 20 July, 2025, a wave of Ukrainian drone assaults prompted temporary shutdowns of all major airports in Moscow over the weekend, grounding over 140 flights and forcing more than 130 diversions, Russian aviation authorities reported. Russia’s Ministry of Defence confirmed that since Saturday morning, its forces intercepted over 230 drones across various regions, with 27 reportedly neutralized in Moscow's airspace alone. The Kaluga region, southwest of the capital, also experienced significant disruption after 45 drones were intercepted, prompting a temporary closure of Kaluga International Airport. Tourism officials indicated that Moscow’s airports faced ten closures within 24 hours, underscoring the scale and frequency of the aerial threats. Despite the turmoil, normal operations have since resumed across the affected airports. Elsewhere, Ukrainian officials reported that Russian air raids killed at least three civilians overnight. In Donetsk, two individuals lost their lives in separate attacks, while a 78-year-old woman died in Sumy after fires consumed residential buildings. Ukraine’s military stated it successfully downed 18 of 57 drones launched by Russia overnight, with another seven reportedly neutralized by radar interference. The attacks spanned frontline regions, including Zaporizhzhia, Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Sumy, and Donetsk. Amid the rising hostilities, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said on Russian television, “President Putin has repeatedly spoken of his desire to bring the Ukrainian settlement to a peaceful conclusion as soon as possible.” In a countergesture, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky proposed restarting negotiations with Russia, expressing willingness to engage directly with President Putin. While previous efforts failed to establish a ceasefire, both sides have exchanged prisoners in the past. Support for Ukraine surged following an announcement from U.S. President Donald Trump, who pledged advanced weapon deliveries through NATO allies and warned of severe tariffs against Russia unless a peace deal is struck within 50 days. Responding to Trump’s declaration, Peskov commented on Sunday: “Everyone has grown accustomed to his [Trump’s] rather harsh and straightforward rhetoric.”
