"Recently, it was unthinkable": an attack on Russian air tanks was a blow to Putin and Russian troops - The Telegraph

To extend: the SBU attack on military air tanks has become indicative by demonstrating an increase in dissatisfaction among ordinary servicemen: the level and scale of the blow made on June 1, one of the most important days in the Russian-Ukrainian war, and also "chase the pendulum on the side of Ukraine". This opinion was published by Colonel of the UK Army retired by Hemish de Bretton-Gordon in a column for the local edition of The Telegraph.

"Sunday, June 1, can be one of the most important days of this war. It can be a sign that the pendulum is finally shaken in favor of Ukraine," the military said. At the same time, de Bretton-Gordon believes that it became apparent that the restrictions imposed on Ukraine on the use of Western weapons are actually removed. "This makes anything achievable within 500 km from Ukraine, including Moscow," the colonel says.

De Bretton-Gordon also mentioned that the Ukrainian military confirmed the creation of a drone with a distance of 3000 kilometers. At the same time, the British colonel believes that Russia's propaganda machine will try to portray it "as something else than a catastrophe for Putin himself and military forces. " At the same time, the colonel raises the question where the systems of air defense of Russia.

"Where is all the air defense that protects these airfields and trains? Perhaps it protects Putin's palaces, or was it given to North Korea in exchange for ammunition?" At the same time, the military resorts to the question of how the Kremlin can respond to its aircraft. Speaking of the operation of the Web, the British colonel also draws attention to the problems of its own state.

"Putin has been exploiting our absence of usual restraint for too long, but he respects power, and nothing in this context demonstrates strength more than nuclear potential," the military said. According to him, the British army now takes on the experience of the Armed Forces and develops opportunities for the future of the battlefield, and also - those opportunities that will be able to restrain "tyrants in Putin's likeness".
