Message to Trump and a challenge for air defense: Kovalenko explained what lies behind the massive attack on Ukraine.


The combined strike by Russia on Ukraine posed a serious challenge for air defense.
According to 'Khvylia', based on information from Oleksandr Kovalenko, a military-political analyst of the 'Information Resistance' group, Russian occupiers carried out a combined strike on Ukraine, using drones and other missile weaponry.
A total of 210 means of destruction were used, of which 102 rockets and 42 UAVs were shot down.
The expert noted that this strike indicates Russia's attempt to synchronize different types of means of destruction in the airspace of Ukraine.
Moreover, Kovalenko noted that this strike was a demonstration that Russia can terrorize Ukraine and was aimed at the newly elected President of the USA, Donald Trump.
He also predicts that in the near future there may be massive shelling and drone attacks with limited ammunition.
