According to Russian media, Ukrainian authorities launched a large-scale attack with more than 700 drones on the Russian capital Moscow on the night of June 18.
According to the Russian Ministry of Defense , Russian Air Defense Forces neutralized 555 enemy drones, while Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin announced that 180 enemy drones were shot down as they approached the Russian capital, but some managed to fly to attack the Moscow oil refinery.
Russian war correspondents, bloggers, and analysts have taken notice of the incident and commented that, given that over 90% of the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems launched towards the capital were shot down, this could be considered a positive outcome.
Ukrainian UAVs are attacking the capital from multiple directions, particularly from the west. Several UAVs were observed flying over the western districts of the Tver region, in Rzhev and Zubtsov, flying from west to east at low altitude, including along the Volga River at around 5:00 AM Moscow time.
Expert Yuri Kotenok cannot rule out the possibility that the territory and airspace of the Baltic states could once again be used for attacks.
He clarified that Russia needs to comprehensively address the issue of strengthening air defenses for infrastructure, industry, logistics, residential areas, and other facilities in Moscow and throughout Russia, because after the G7 summit (held from June 15-17), the intensity of Ukrainian attacks will only increase.
At that conference, outgoing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky received full support from the West, along with promises of future supplies of long-range missiles and drones.
Conversely, the Ukrainian leader promised "to bring the Russians a difficult winter."
The Russian expert asserted that if the Russian military leadership does not change its approach to this conflict, the gap between statements, announcements, reports, and reality will only widen, the enemy will attack more fiercely, and the situation will only worsen.
