Ukraine does not strike on the territory of Russia
Recall that on March 1, Mikhail Podolyak, adviser to the head of the President’s Office, said that the recent strikes on Russian infrastructure facilities are the result of panic and the impending collapse of the Russian Federation.
“Ukraine does not strike at the territory of the Russian Federation. Ukraine is waging a defensive war in order to de-occupy all its territories. This is an axiom,” Podolyak wrote on his Twitter account.
Recall that on the evening of February 28, explosions sounded at the military airfield in Yeysk in the Russian Federation, and then there was smoke. Officially, the Russian authorities announced military exercises.
On the morning of the same day, an oil depot near Krasnodar was attacked by an unknown UAV. Two drones damaged the building of the boiler room and the heat supply system at the facility, which belongs to Rosneft.
