What Do Russians Think of the Drone Attack on Moscow?

A drone attack targeting Moscow this week was by far the largest wave launched against Russia since it invaded Ukraine last year. Although the Russian authorities said eight unmanned aerial vehicles were involved in this latest attack, media sources close to the state security services put the figure at more than 30 drones.

We spoke to people in Moscow to find out what they thought about the attack.

… we have a small favor to ask.
