Air defenses in Bryokhovo, Moscow region, continued repelling drones between 5:16 PM and 6:15 PM UTC on January 3, 2026, according to Exilenova+, with power outages reported during the operations. The report from Exilenova+ stated: "Bryokhovo, Moscow region. The magic of turning off the light. 'Repelling' drones continues in the region." This follows Radar Bryansk Telegram channel's report of 30 UAVs transiting the Bryansk region toward rear areas between 4:46 PM and 5:15 PM UTC earlier on January 3, as noted in a prior update. Exilenova+ also quoted US President Donald Trump during the same period stating: "I don't admire Putin. He kills too many people. I'm not afraid of Putin." Trump added: "I think we're making progress on a Ukrainian settlement. This is a war between Biden, Zelensky, and Putin. I entered this situation and it's chaos."
