Moscow is depleting Ukrainian air defense before cold weather

On Friday, January 5, it will be minus 13 degree Celsius in Kyiv... At least a week of frost. Russia is well aware of this.

Russia is depleting Ukrainian air defense with missiles. It is mass-producing its own. Here we should send greetings to all the government speakers with their “it will be only  3-4 massive attacks".

Now it seems there will be no pause in the aerial attacks.

I hope that the photos of Kyiv in flames today will shorten the pause in Western countries in making decisions about helping Ukraine. With weapons and ammunition.

Otherwise, in a year or two, such photos could well be seen in Warsaw, Riga, Tallinn, and other now elegant, New Year's-decorated capitals.
