Russian air defences have intercepted drones heading toward three western regions, while satellite images indicated that a major drone barrage earlier this week destroyed at least two Ilyushin Il-76 military transport planes at an air base, officials said.

Regional governors said defence systems stopped three drones in the Kursk, Belgorod and Moscow regions.
