The storm waving on the horizon follows the Spiderweb process – the most daring strike in Ukraine so far.
It was personally led by espionage chief Vasil Malayuk according to the direct orders of President Volodimir Zelinski.
More than 117 Kamikaz drones have been launched from hidden, disguised mobile units as daily charging trucks, which were not discovered to Russian territory.

The strikes struck four strategic rules – Peleia, Diyajlivo, Olina, and Ivanovo – burning a plane capable of firing nuclear warheads.
Ukrainian officials say 41 aircraft were destroyed or damaged.
The American intelligence puts the number closer to 20, with the destruction of at least 10 completely – there is still an amazing blow to the long -term bomber fleet in Russia.
The damage of $ 7 billion, which was afflicted with zero shoes on the ground, has left angry Kremlin's tyrant and decided to reaffirm her military hegemony.

Growing the summer offensive
Western analysts say MAD Vlad is not only seeking revenge – but it is penetration.
Reports from the Ukrainian intelligence indicate that up to 125,000 soldiers gather near the Sumi and Karkiv borders, with fears of a three -sided summer attack.
The attack is expected to focus on Kramatorsk, Kostiantynivka and Pokrovsk in Donbas – with plans to surround the main cities instead of taking it out on the street.
“We have seen that the Russians are turning into the attacks of small concentrated units, often from only three to five men,” said military analyst Conrad Mosica.
“The company's size assaults from 50 to 100 men barely occur anymore.”
But Ukraine, armed with drones and western weapons, does not retreat.
Zelinski warned this week: “Even after all the terrible attacks of Russia, he is said to be preparing for more” responses. ”
“With every new blow, with every delay in diplomacy, Russia gives the finger to the entire world.”
