TASS: ONE OF THE LARGEST ATTACKS ON MOSCOW IN YEARS
I examine the reported Ukrainian long-range drone strike on a Transneft Upper Volga pipeline branch near Konstantinovka, a fuel hub said to connect supply routes to Moscow’s major airports. The strategic issue is not simply the size of the drone wave, but whether repeated strikes can force Russia to reroute fuel by road and impose sustained friction on aviation and logistics around its capital. I also sort through sharply conflicting Russian claims on drone totals and interceptions rather than treating them as settled fact.
I then compare these military-logistics strikes with Russia’s overnight attacks on Kharkiv, where residential buildings were hit. Beyond Moscow, I cover reported hits on Russian telecommunications, command, UAV, and ammunition sites; Kyiv’s bridge-protection nets; and Wild Hornets’ new Night Hornets private air-defense network. Finally, I look at remote turrets, unmanned ground vehicles, and the accelerating contest over drone-production supply chains linked to Chinese firms.
