2025年10月24日凌晨，俄羅斯首都莫斯科州克拉斯諾戈爾斯克（Krasnogorsk）發生一起嚴重的無人機襲擊事件。一架疑似由烏克蘭方面發射的無人機撞入當地一棟14層高的住宅公寓樓，爆炸造成嚴重破壞與人員傷亡。據俄羅斯官方通報，爆炸導致至少5人受傷，其中包括一名兒童。傷者中有4人已被送往醫院接受治療，傷勢涉及顱腦創傷與骨折；受傷的兒童則腿部脫臼但傷勢較輕。

現場畫面顯示，無人機撞擊後爆炸威力巨大，公寓外牆被炸出一個巨大的缺口，兩間住宅被完全摧毀。爆炸產生的衝擊波波及整棟大樓，電梯井與庭院區域都受到波及，碎片散落街頭，居民驚慌逃離建築。救援人員隨即趕赴現場，協助傷者並進行大樓安全評估。

俄羅斯莫斯科州州長安德烈·沃羅比約夫（Andrei Vorobyov）在事後表示，這是一起「針對平民的恐怖襲擊」，他強調俄方將繼續加強首都圈的防空部署，以防止類似事件再度發生。

俄國防部隨後發布聲明指出，在過去一夜間，俄羅斯防空部隊共在全國13個地區攔截並摧毀了多達111架烏克蘭無人機，其中包括1架在莫斯科地區被擊落。出於安全考量，莫斯科附近的茹科夫斯基（Zhukovsky）與多莫傑多沃（Domodedovo）兩座主要國際機場一度暫停航班起降，避免飛行器誤入防空警戒範圍。

與此同時，烏克蘭方面也在同一天遭遇報復性攻擊。烏克蘭東北部城市哈爾科夫（Kharkiv）當日傳出俄軍導彈襲擊，造成至少6人受傷。這起事件發生在俄烏雙方持續以無人機、導彈互相攻擊的背景下，顯示雙方衝突在秋季再度升級。

值得注意的是，就在襲擊發生前一天（10月23日），俄羅斯防空部隊才宣稱成功擊落139架烏克蘭無人機，當時莫斯科市長索比亞寧（Sergey Sobyanin）也曾通報，首都防空系統攔截了3架試圖飛向莫斯科的無人機。這顯示，烏克蘭持續加大對俄境內戰略地區的無人機滲透行動，而俄方則加強防禦力度，但仍難以完全避免部分攻擊穿透防線、造成民用區受損。

整體而言，此次莫斯科郊區的無人機襲擊事件，不僅突顯出俄烏戰爭中「無人機戰」的新階段，也讓俄羅斯國內民眾的安全憂慮進一步上升。對俄方而言，這是對首都安全體系的一次嚴峻考驗；而對烏方而言，則是展示其長程攻擊能力與心理戰策略的重要一環。

On October 24, 2025, a dramatic drone strike hit a residential building in Krasnogorsk, a city located in Moscow Oblast, Russia. According to Russian officials, the attack injured five people, including a child, and caused extensive structural damage. The drone reportedly crashed into a 14-story apartment block, triggering a powerful explosion that destroyed two apartments and blew a large hole through the building’s outer wall. The blast wave shattered windows, damaged the elevator shaft and courtyard, and sent debris flying across the area, prompting residents to flee in panic.

Moscow Oblast Governor Andrei Vorobyov confirmed that four of the injured victims were hospitalized with head trauma and fractures, while the child suffered a leg dislocation but was in stable condition. Emergency services arrived quickly, evacuating residents, treating the wounded, and inspecting the integrity of the damaged structure.

In response, the Russian Defense Ministry issued a statement claiming that its air defense systems intercepted and destroyed 111 Ukrainian drones overnight across 13 regions, including one in the Moscow area. Due to heightened security risks, Moscow’s Zhukovsky and Domodedovo international airports temporarily suspended flights to prevent aircraft from entering active defense zones.

Meanwhile, in Ukraine, the city of Kharkiv was struck by a Russian missile attack on the same day, wounding six people. The incident underscored the ongoing escalation in drone and missile exchanges between the two countries, as both sides increasingly rely on unmanned aerial warfare to target strategic and psychological objectives.

This attack came just one day after Russian forces reported shooting down 139 Ukrainian drones on October 23. Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin stated that three of those drones were intercepted while heading toward the capital. The successive waves of attacks and interceptions highlight Ukraine’s continued efforts to penetrate Russian defenses with long-range drones, as well as Russia’s growing struggle to secure its airspace.

Overall, the Krasnogorsk drone strike marks another escalation in the Russia–Ukraine conflict, symbolizing the expanding “drone war” that has increasingly blurred the lines between front-line and civilian targets. For Russia, it raised serious concerns over the safety of its capital region; for Ukraine, it demonstrated both strategic reach and psychological impact deep inside Russian territory.
