Belgorod, Russia Attacked Again! Has Ukraine’s Counteroffensive Begun? - Video

As long as Russia is in Ukraine, Ukraine can be in Russia!

Another advantage of striking within Russia is to counter any hesitancy Ukraine’s western backers have of supplying Ukraine with new military capabilities. It calls the bluff of the Kremlin that attacks on Russian soil will be met with nuclear retaliation, since we can see that Russia is unable to escalate, even with explosions in the capital and cross-border incursions into Russia proper.

The drones that attacked Moscow were unlikely to have originated from Ukraine. They were commercial, low tech and very slow. Also, travelling hundreds of kilometers without being seen by anyone with a mobile device is also unlikely. This was partisan activity who knew to attack the wealthiest part of the city, resulting in maximum psychological effect with low level sympathy from just about everyone else in Russia.
