Warsaw, Poland – In a gambit to gain advantage in the PR and psychological war campaign, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has announced his counterpart in Moscow is leaving huge areas of Russia defenseless against Kyiv’s drone and missile attacks.
“The Russian leadership is now pulling more air defense assets to Moscow, Valdai (Russian President Vladimir Putin’s palatial estate in the St. Petersburg region), and the bridge across the Kerch Strait – at the expense of air defense elsewhere.
