Estonian intelligence says Russia can continue massive missile attacks on Ukraine for six months
Russia continues to produce high-precision munitions, so missile strikes against Ukraine could continue for another half a year, according to the most pessimistic scenario
Col. Margo Grosberg, head of the Estonian Defense Forces intelligence center, made a prediction, ERR reports.
“From our most optimistic point of view, attacks will continue for the next three to four months, or until spring, and from the pessimistic point of view, for six to nine months,” he said, assessing Russia's ability to fire missiles at Ukraine en masse.
Grosberg noted that before the war, Russia had about 2,500 missiles.
“Between half and two-thirds of the missiles were used up. But, as the latest missile fragments show, Russia continued to produce missiles throughout the war in addition to those in the warehouses,” he emphasized.
“This shows that high-tech elements continue to flow into Russia,” Grosberg added.
He noted that in this way the occupying Russian forces will be able to make missiles for a very long time.
