Moscow's Mayor Calls a Drone Wave the 'Largest Ever' Attack on the Capital

Moscow's mayor described a wave of drones as the “largest ever” attack on the Russian capital, and said there had been damage to a Moscow oil refinery and a residential building. Two claims, two different kinds of evidence. Damage to a named refinery and a residential building is specific and checkable; “largest ever” is a comparison that depends on who is counting and what gets counted. Read together, they are an official's account of a night — one that carries both a damage report and an argument about the scale of the threat.
