The Ukrainian bumps deep inside Russia, in addition to significant casualties in the operational capabilities of the Moscow Armed Forces, has also hit the Kremlin’s confidence on security of its military bases, Even those far from the border with Ukraine.

A fleet so heavily struck that it might force the Kremlin to review the his strategy against Ukraine, emphasize Financial Times. Deep blows to Russian territory reveal the price of a lasting war – even if the opponent is weaker.
At the same time, US and European security officials told the New York Times that estimates of damage are still coming from attacks but estimate that up to 20 Russian aircraft may have been destroyed or suffered serious damagecausing a serious blow to the Russian large -scale Russian capabilities.
Officials said Russia’s casualties include six TU-95 large-scale bombers and four TU-22m, as well as A-50 fighter aircraft, which are used to detect air defense and directed missiles.
The attack, known as “Spider’s Web” (spider web), hit Moscow’s valuable strategic potential, the New York Times writes. But equally important, it showed Ukraine’s ability to hit almost anywhere in Russia and destroy war aircraft that cost $ 100 million or more with unmanned aircraft for just $ 600, according to an US defense official.
The blow with underwater explosives on the Kerch Bridge
Ukraine hit the Kerch Bridge, with special forces of the Ukrainian army placing and triggering explosives with which they had trapped support columns.
The Ukrainian Security Service, also known as “SBU”, successfully executed another mission within Russian territory, targeting the strategic Crimean Bridge, which is a hub for its logistical support, logistics and administrative arguments.

His correspondent Sky News In Moscow he notes that “it is not clear how great the attacks are from the attack. For Ukraine it is not only a strategic goal, but also a symbolic. This bridge was a night work for Putin and has become the visual symbol of the annexation of Crimea by Russia. “
“For Ukraine, any blow to this bridge is considered a communication victory,” he adds. It was also preceded by the significant Ukrainian blow with drones within Russia (operation of “Spider Web”). The operation was shortly before negotiations between Russia and Ukraine began. Kiev had a clear goal: to show Vladimir Putin that continuing the war will cost.
Could Russia unleash a “superpower”?
The latest loud Ukrainian attacks have caused a strong concern for a possible escalation on the part of Russia, using one of its so -called “overwhelming” – a term that the Russian president introduced for the first time in March 2018, referring to a new category of nuclear or nuclear system.
Indeed, in the midst of growing tensions, Putin recently confirmed Russia’s sovereignty in world weapons exports, stating that “Russia remains among the top five, leading countries in the world weapons market”.
He emphasized the need to prioritize cutting -edge weapons. “Along with traditional weapons, special attention should be paid to the many promising weapons required by our armed forces and which have export potential. These include robotic air, land, marine and underwater vehicles, laser systems and troops control systems that use artificial intelligence technologies, “Putin said.
As Kiev further expands its war effort on Russian territory and Moscow escalates its retaliation, the question is now whether Putin will respond with a strategic weapon that will change the data – a weapon that could signal a dangerous new chapter.
With Russia’s most advanced weapons remaining unused and tensions rising sharply, the planet is watching dramatic developments with a “breath”.
