After Ukraine launched an attack on Russian strategic bomber airports, the whole world is waiting to see how Russia will counterattack. Not long ago, the Russian army's large-scale military retaliation against Ukraine's so-called "spider web" operation finally kicked off. It has to be said that the Russian army's revenge is indeed fast, accurate and ruthless! In the early morning of June 6 local time, many Ukrainian cities encountered large-scale military retaliation like a "tournament" by the Russian army almost at the same time. Many military targets in many Ukrainian cities, including the Ukrainian capital Kiev, were strongly attacked by the Russian army. According to Ukraine, Russia launched 407 drones and 44 missiles to Ukraine overnight. According to Ukraine, although most of the Russian missiles and drones were successfully intercepted, they still caused huge damage to Ukraine and many places. After the local attack by the Russian army, small mushroom clouds even emerged at the scene, which shows that the weapons used by the Russian army this time are indeed quite powerful.
According to the current known news, the Russian side's attack on Ukraine mainly includes infrastructure and military facilities. For example, the railway line around Kiev has been attacked by the Russian army, which has affected train transportation to a certain extent. In addition, power outages appear to occur in some areas in Kiev, which may indicate that the power and other infrastructure near Kiev have also been attacked by the Russian army. In addition, in Sumei Prefecture, near Russia, the last MiG-29 repair factory in Ukraine was completely destroyed, the S-300 air defense position was destroyed, and many drone factories and training bases were also bombed. Warren State and the state capital Lutsk, which are adjacent to Poland and Belarus, have also been attacked many times.
It is obvious that the purpose of the Russian army's strike is very clear. That is to fight against Ukraine's potential for war and will to resist. By attacking and destroying Ukraine's infrastructure and military facilities, on the one hand, the combat effectiveness of the Ukrainian army can be weakened and fighter jets can be provided for the front-line Russian army. On the other hand, it can also obviously weaken Ukraine's overall overall strength and press the acceleration button for the end of the war. In response to the Russian attack, Ukrainian President Zelensky has publicly stated that Russia must be responsible for this. It can be seen that Ukraine is also a little "unable to resist" this time. Of course, Ukraine also seeks to get a hammer. After all, it is precisely because of Ukraine's brazen attack on Russia's strategic assets that the situation in Russia and Ukraine further deteriorates and escalates.
As the situation in Russia and Ukraine further deteriorates, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is increasingly at risk of spillover. Recently, NATO has also publicly announced that it will require member states to significantly increase the proportion of defense expenditure in GDP. NATO countries' military expenditure may usher in a round of soaring, and NATO countries' large-scale arms upgrade plans are obviously on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the verge of being on the NATO's move is likely to have two purposes, one is to prevent Russia's possible "further moves". Anyone with a discerning eye can see that no matter how Ukraine persists, it may only be a matter of time before Ukraine's final defeat under the huge gap in strength. So once Ukraine is really defeated, will hundreds of thousands or even millions of Russian troops who have experienced war baptism "continue to move forward"? This is actually a question that NATO, especially European member states of NATO, cannot be ignored.
Secondly, NATO's move is likely to be aimed at increasing the efforts to aid Ukraine. The reason why NATO has vigorously expanded its military may be to provide more existing and stocked military resources to Ukraine. In order to make up for this part of the losses, NATO began a large-scale arms expansion plan. Therefore, we have reason to believe that NATO's subsequent aid to Ukraine may further increase.
However, no matter what, the current situation in Europe is indeed not optimistic. The whole of Europe can be said to be a storm coming and the wind is everywhere. Let us continue to observe how the situation will develop in the future.
