Drone Attack On Moscow.

Vladimir Putin

The drone attack, which was confirmed by Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, occurred just hours after yet another barrage of Russian airstrikes on Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital, which killed at least one person and injured more than a dozen.

Kyiv has been under a relentless assault of near-nightly bombings in recent weeks with Moscow seemingly intent on weakening or destroying Ukraine’s air defenses ahead of a much-anticipated counteroffensive that President Volodymyr Zelensky has said will oust the Russian invaders from Ukraine’s territory.

The War in Ukraine is taking a large toll in Russia and is causing many to rethink the ability of Ukraine people to defend themselves from a Russian invasion. Russia was expecting more of a cake walk with the invasion and did not anticipate the stamina and zeal of the Ukrainian resistance in defending their homeland. The War has made Russia a Western pariah but has also caused the Former Soviet Union to cozy up to China in ways that are alarming to the West in general. Essentially a new cold war alignment is forming that consists of Sino/Russia Alliance v. US/Europe/Japan/Australia.
