“(The Russian military) strikes Ukrainian territory, but with long-range precision weapons, specifically military infrastructure or ammunition depots”
Kiev has chosen the path of intimidating Russian citizens with attacks on civilian facilities, which is a clear sign of terrorist activity, the Russian president claimed Vladimir Putin following Tuesday morning’s drone attacks in Moscow.
Putin claimed that during the “special military operation” (invasion of Ukraine) Russia hit Ukrainian territory, but only military facilities and infrastructure. “Russia was forced to respond to the war launched by the Ukrainian regime in Donbass. (We) were forced to respond by launching a “special military operation”. (The Russian army) strikes Ukrainian territory, but with long-range precision weapons, specifically military infrastructure or ammunition depots,” said the Russian head of state.
Putin stressed that “in response, the Kiev regime chose a different path – (the path) of trying to intimidate Russia, to intimidate Russian citizens and to attack residential buildings.” “This, of course, is a clear sign of terrorist activity,” the Russian president said, according to TASS.
Eight drones targeted the Russian capital and five were shot down by Pantsir-S missile systems, while three were neutralized electronically. Material damage was caused to buildings and two people were injured.
The Russian Ministry of Defense has announced that it reserves the right to receive the stricter measures in response to drone attacks.
