Ukraine launched a massive drone and "missile" attack on Moscow, utilizing over 550 drones and jet-powered hybrids, marking likely the war's largest. This strike coincided with President Zelensky's European Council summit in Brussels and the Eurosatory Paris defense expo, serving as a PR effort to secure funding and project Ukrainian "victory."
Ukrainian Defense Minister Fedorov implied the strikes aimed to show Western partners a "window of opportunity," which Ukrainian authorities believe will be short-lived due to inventory expenditure and Russia's anticipated adaptation. Russia has re-established supply flows to Crimea and constructed earthwork bridges to counter Ukrainian strikes, while advancing on the front lines, threatening Lyman. Russia is also deploying the 'Volna Kupol Garant' electronic warfare system, produced by OOO "Russian Dome," designed to suppress Starlink communications over 20 square kilometer areas by jamming satellite signals. The Moscow attack primarily hit a refinery, with damage often from Russian interceptors or drone debris. Evidence suggests Ukraine uses NATO airspace, with a French Rafale intercepting a Ukrainian drone in Latvian airspace.
