When a drone crashed on the side of its apartment early on Tuesday, Russia’s attack on Ukraine literally returned to Svetlana in a suburb of Moscow.
Like most of the Russians, the three-year Moscow military campaign until the time felt that is mostly bound by television.
Despite military propaganda and collective employment of the soldiers, the authorities tried to keep society along the arm of the death and destroy the conflict – especially in and around the capital.
“You understand that it is war, but you do not realize it correctly,” said Svetlana, wearing a coat in the winter with the fur collar. “But now, yes, it’s up.”
In Raminskoy, about 40 km (25 miles) southeast in central Moscow, the police surrounded an area where a drone was hit.
The attack broke the feeling of the comfort of Svetlana – a supporter of the Kremlin attack -.
“Yes, we were weaving the camouflage window, collecting humanitarian aid, and accompanying the fighters there, but we still did not realize it. It is now.”
“I am afraid of children,” said André, an electrician who lives on the twelfth floor of the building, which was hit.
He was sweeping the broken glass of his car, which was hit by the falling shrapnel after the drone crashed on the 18-22 floors.
“My six -year -old daughter was sleeping with me, she woke up crying out of noise,” he told AFP.
– “Fear in their eyes” –
Kiev said he wanted the attack – which included more than 300 drones – to persuade Russian President Vladimir Putin to agree to the air fire.
The Kremlin previously ruled out this.
Ukraine says the strikes are just a taste of what Russia has been subjected to its citizens over the past three years, as Moscow has launched near daily bombs, missiles and drones throughout the country.
“There is no idea that tonight will be peaceful. It is frightening,” said Olga, 21, who works in it and lives in the adjacent building.
She fled to the street after she woke up at 5 am (0200 GMT) by Hader.
“People only have fear in their eyes,” she told AFP.
Unlike Ukraine – the weather alerts start practically every night in almost every city – there was no warning of an attack in the Russian capital or its suburbs.
“We don’t understand what to do in such cases,” Olga said.
– “I do not believe in peace” –
“The news says that more and more drones are dropped. It is frightening to sleep after this thing.” “We could have been.”
The idea of peace – which was previously seen at hand amid the convergence of US President Donald Trump with Moscow – was far from Raminskoy.
“In my opinion, this attack will not be the last,” he retired, retired, and criticized the supporters of the “bloody fragrance” in Ukraine, who were supplying it with weapons.
For the 75 -year -old Yulia, who lives next to the struck that was hit, there was frustration.
“My heart is bad. I don’t think there will be peace,” she told AFP.
“Why don’t they agree? Why not? What do they think?” She said through tears. “It is terrible.”
