Putin says there is no need for “massive” missile attacks. Are the Russians running out of steam?

The type of missiles used could indicate that Russian stocks are running out, Western researchers and analysts believe.

It is not Russia’s goal to destroy Ukraine, Vladimir Putin said on Friday.

After the strategically important bridge between Russia and Crimea was blown up, the Russians responded brutally two days later.

Missiles rained down on Ukraine on Monday. At least ten cities across the country have been affected. Russian propaganda praised the attacks on civilian infrastructure and military bloggers demanded more to “bomb Ukraine until the Middle Ages”.

The Russians used cruise missiles. It could indicate that the Russians are running out of other types of missile weapons.
