The Russian Aerospace Forces are hitting Kiev — now not once a week on Mondays, but every other day. As Kremlin press attache Dmitry Peskov said yesterday, "there is a war going on, this is a real war," which "started as SMO," says columnist Lyubov Stepushova.
Peskov explained that the assessment has been changed because "Berlin, Paris, The Hague, Oslo, and, unfortunately, Washington are behind Kiev." This changes the tactics of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, now they will be guided by defeating the Armed Forces with surrender. Diplomacy recedes into the background.
Strikes every other day on Kiev should physically negate the attacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with long-range missiles and drones on Russian cities and infrastructure, and not only because of the physical reduction of ammunition, but also because of intimidation. If this happens within a week or two, then the Kiev regime has lost its "sting".
Zelensky decided to face off with Russia, hoping for the Kremlin's inclination to compromise and NATO's "determination" to help. NATO Summit in Ankara, which opens tomorrow, will show the extent of this determination.
The secondary detonation at the factory in Vishnevoye near Kiev shows that the incoming ammunition did not have time to either be sent (which is done immediately) or hidden. This shows that our intelligence is working well. The situation on the fronts on Ukraine is changing before our eyes and is encouraging.
