Moscow - under the Ukrainian attack. Why did Putin failed to promise in front of the residents of the capital

A very successful invasion of Ukraine into the Russian territory near Kursk has questioned its ability to maintain the control necessary for the maintenance of power. Now that Ukrainian troops control more than 1,250 kilometers of the Russian territory (this is a psychologically devastating situation that has not occurred since the Second World War), Putin's concern will only be strengthened by the successful blows of drones on Moscow itself.

Recognizing a rare failure, the Russian authorities confirmed that early in the morning on Wednesday, Ukraine made more than 45 separate departments of drones to the Russian territory. Their number, especially important, included at least 11 punches of drones in Moscow. It was one of the greatest blows of drones in the capital since Russia has expanded the war against Ukraine in February 2022.

Today's blow can be compared to an attack in May 2023, when at least eight drones were destroyed above the capital due to an attack, which, according to Putin, was an attempt to "scare Kiev and provoke" Russia. As Ukraine can continue to provoke a country that invaded it, occupies about 18 percent of its territory and committed military crimes, including the forced deportation of children to Russia, remains a mystery. But Ukraine, of course, frightened the Russian population.

It is a very intelligent tactic of Ukrainians who are increasingly overcoming the lack of live power and ordinary ammunition using the breaks in Russian defense. Drone operations on Wednesday led to the closure of all the three largest Moscow airports, which is to mass interruptions. The rich Muscovites, far from the bloody massacre of Donbass, woke up this morning from real bombing, horrific air defense sounds that knocks down the drones above their capital.

Whether by the plan, or by a pleasant coincidence, Moscow was attacked when Putin returned from his visit to Chechnya, which once again demonstrated the inability of Russian special services and further undermined Putin's position in the eyes of his people. The level of psychological harm caused to the Muscovites, who mostly believe that the Putin War in Ukraine is dismissed from their daily cases is now increasing.

After the attack last year, they were assured that he would not happen again, and Putin said that he knew how to do to strengthen Moscow's defense capability. Now it happened again, and it testifies to Putin's incompetence. What happened is important, as Putin so far tried to deprive the inhabitants of the main Russian cities-Moscow and St. Petersburg-the horrors of war to maintain their support.

With these blows, Ukraine makes it clear to the Russian middle class and the oligarchy that they cannot stay away from war as viewers. Recent combat successes of Ukraine - on Earth, and now in the air - demonstrate the wonderful work of Ukrainian military intelligence and the ability to go beyond. Modern sensors and satellites on the battlefield were thought to leave no room for surprises. Ukrainians are increasingly discrediting this view.

Turning to the Chechen troops heading on the front line in the Donbass, Putin stated yesterday that the Russian forces (and their Chechen mercenaries) were "absolutely invincible. " However, Putin should already know that there is no absolute in the war. And in the war now leading Ukraine against Russian aggressors, even for the mosquitoes, this reality begins to wake up.
