  "account": "Ukrainian drones targeted residential buildings in the Russian Moscow region, causing fires and prompting evacuations. In Kubinka, a town near Moscow, 10 individuals were evacuated after a fire erupted on the eighth and ninth floors of an apartment building. No casualties were reported. The town, part of the Odintsovo urban district, is known for the nearby Patriot Park and a military airfield used by aerobatic teams. In Pavlovsky Posad, a drone attack on a residential building on 1 Maya Street caused window damage and prompted the evacuation of residents. Additionally, a drone strike resulted in a factory fire in the village of Bolshoye Bunkovo, though the specific factory remains unidentified. Ukrainian drones shot down 56 drones over the Moscow region overnight. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin reported dozens of drones heading toward the capital, with the total number of drones downed since midnight reaching at least 94. Ukrainian drones also attacked Sochi's sea port, resulting in a fire, though few details have been released. Neither the governor of Krasnodar Krai nor the mayor of Sochi has commented on the incident.",
