Moscow Region Governor Andrey Vorobyov said a Ukrainian drone attack overnight killed a 20-year-old man in Radumlya, in Solnechnogorsk municipal district, and injured six people. He said 185 UAVs were shot down across 16 municipalities in the region.
An overnight attempt by Ukrainian drones to strike Moscow was among the largest in two years, TASS said, citing calculations based on data from Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin. He said 650 UAVs headed toward the Moscow Region between October 5 and 6; most were destroyed at long range and 105 were brought down while approaching Moscow.
Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin said 650 UAVs flew toward the Moscow Region between the evening of October 5 and the morning of October 6. Air defenses destroyed most at long range, while another 105 were intercepted as they approached Moscow.
Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin said 18 unmanned aerial vehicles were destroyed as they approached the Russian capital. Emergency responders are working where debris fell. TASS calculated from his earlier reports that air defenses had downed 57 UAVs approaching Moscow over the past four hours.
Ukrainian drones reportedly targeted Moscow Oblast in several waves and from different directions overnight on Oct. 6, with regional air defenses engaged. It remains unclear whether any targets were hit. The report comes as Russia continues strikes on Ukrainian cities and civilian infrastructure.

President Donald Trump has approved a U.S. Army firing-squad execution for Nidal Hasan, the military psychiatrist convicted of killing 13 people and wounding 32 in a 2009 shooting at Fort Hood. The attack was described as the deadliest shooting of its kind at a U.S. military base. Hasan was sentenced to death by a military jury in 2013.
Nidal Hasan, a former U.S. Army major who killed 13 people at Fort Hood in Texas in 2009, is set to be executed by firing squad, officials said Monday.
The Pentagon says President Trump approved an Army firing-squad execution for former Army Maj. Nidal Hasan. Hasan was sentenced to death after a court-martial convicted him of killing 13 people and wounding 32 others at a Texas Army base.
The Pentagon says former US Army major Nidal Malik Hasan will be executed by firing squad, the first US military execution in more than 60 years and the first by that method since World War Two. Hasan killed 13 soldiers and wounded 32 at Fort Hood in 2009 and was convicted of 13 premeditated murders and 32 attempted murders.
President Donald Trump approved a firing-squad execution Monday for Nidal Hasan, the US Army psychiatrist convicted of killing 13 people at Fort Hood in 2009. It would be the first US military execution since 1961; the Army has not yet set the date or location.
President Donald Trump has authorized a firing squad as the method for Nidal Hasan’s execution. Hasan’s conviction stemmed from the 2009 massacre at Fort Hood in Texas.
Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell said Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth recommended executing convicted Fort Hood mass shooter Nidal Hasan, and President Donald Trump approved the recommendation.

The Parti Quebecois has returned to power in Quebec after winning the provincial election, its first return since 2014. Leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon pledged that the party would hold a future referendum on independence from Canada.
The secessionist Parti Quebecois won the most seats in Quebec’s election and is set to form the next provincial government. Leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon is expected to become premier and has promised a third independence referendum during his first term, although he says it would wait until Donald Trump leaves office in January 2029. The result ends eight years of Coalition Avenir Quebec rule and creates a new national-unity challenge for Prime Minister Mark Carney.
Canadian media project that the sovereigntist Parti Québécois will win a minority government in Quebec, making Paul St-Pierre Plamondon the incoming premier. The party has promised an independence referendum and may confront Ottawa over immigration, the monarchy and provincial powers. Its victory ends the PQ’s absence from power since 2014.
The Canadian Press projected that the separatist Parti Québécois won Quebec’s provincial election. If confirmed, the result would return to power a party that has pledged to hold another referendum on independence.
Quebec voters are heading to the polls to choose the province’s next government.

Donald Trump said Washington moved the B-1 military aircraft deployed at RAF Fairford in the UK after receiving additional threats.
EeuronewsOriginal★★★☆☆2026-10-06 03:54
The U.S. military moved all of its bombers out of RAF Fairford partly because officials feared a possible Iranian drone attack on the base and the aircraft, according to two U.S. officials.
The US suddenly withdrew 12 B-1 bombers from RAF Fairford. Vice-President JD Vance called it an “abundance of caution”, while Donald Trump cited “some threats” to the base. British officials said Iran’s threat to the UK remained high and US airbases could be targets. Iran denied involvement in events at Fairford.
Donald Trump said the US removed about a dozen B-1 bombers from RAF Fairford because of “some threats” to the base. He said Washington knows who made the threat but did not identify them. The move follows an incident involving suspicious vehicles and arrests by counter-terror police, though Marco Rubio declined to directly link the events.
Trump explained why the United States moved long-range bombers out of the United Kingdom. The U.S. Air Force B-1 bombers removed from England had been used in strikes on Iran.
The US pulled its bombers from RAF Fairford while investigating an alleged terrorist plot against the base. At least 10 B-1s involved in the Iran conflict left on Sunday. Five men arrested near the base, followed by a British-Iranian national, were released on bail, prompting Pentagon criticism.
Experts say the US withdrawal of about a dozen B-1 bombers from RAF Fairford removes a convenient launchpad but not Washington’s underlying ability to strike Iran. The move could make it harder to rapidly sustain heavy bombing missions, increasing reliance on longer-range flights, aerial refuelling and fatigued crews, while reflecting concerns over possible attacks on the base or aircraft.
