Russia says it intercepted nearly 160 drones; missile strikes in Ukraine injure 28
Russian air defences intercepted and destroyed 158 Ukrainian drones overnight, including two over Moscow and nine over the surrounding region, the Defence Ministry said Sunday.
Forty-six of the drones were over the Kursk region, where Ukraine has sent its forces in recent weeks in the largest incursion on Russian soil since the Second World War. A further 34 were shot over the Bryansk region, 28 over the Voronezh region, and 14 over the Belgorod region — all of which border Ukraine.
Drones were also shot down deeper into Russia, including one each in the Tver region, northwest of Moscow, and the Ivanovo region, northeast of the Russian capital. Russia’s Defence Ministry said drones were intercepted over 15 regions, while one other governor said a drone was shot down over his region, too.

Hi
Very easy to see where all this is leading – The use of tactical nuclear weapons to defend the Motherland. I believe Russia will use a tactical nuke inside Ukraine as a warning.

The US, and allies, will increasingly give and let Ukraine use longer range missiles in Russia.
Denmark has said Ukraine should be able to use F-16’s inside Russia.
