According to the Ukrainian "RBC.UA" news network, the Ukrainian Air Force posted an article on the social platform Telegram on October 31 that the Russian army launched more than 50 cruise missiles to Ukraine that morning, attacking Ukraine's important infrastructure, of which 44 cruise missiles were shot down by Ukraine. According to the Ukrainian Independent News Agency earlier on October 31, explosions were heard from Kiev Prefecture , Vinnica Prefecture , Kirovogle Prefecture and Poltava Prefecture. These areas have activated the air defense system . "RBC.UA" news network reported that the Russian army launched a large-scale strike on Ukraine on the morning of October 31, and explosions were heard in many areas of Ukraine, and important infrastructure in these areas was attacked. The report also said that the air defense alarm was sounded throughout Ukraine.
Russia takes action against Ukraine again. This time it is still the missile that strikes the core area of Ukraine and destroys its important infrastructure. It is obvious that Russia is attacking Ukraine's rear logistical support capabilities to support the Russian military battlefield on the front line. Faced with the attack of Russian cruise missiles, Ukraine actually claimed that Russia launched more than 50 cruise missiles, and 44 were shot down by Ukraine. Such a record is too fierce. Could it be that the Western-assisted air defense weapon played a role, making Russia's cruise missile strikes not very effective. However, clues can still be seen from the reports. Ukraine's statement is likely to be boasting and is a public opinion offensive. On the one hand, it is to appease the people's hearts and prevent them from panicing too much, because Ukraine has the ability to intercept most missiles. On the other hand, it is naturally a reassurance for the Wu army on the front line, so that they can understand that the rear defense is good, and there is no need to worry about the raid of their hometown, let alone the logistics cut off.
However, explosions were heard in many areas of Ukraine, including Kiev, Vinnica, Kirovograd and Poltava. If most of the Russian missiles were intercepted, 44 were intercepted by 50, and only 6 missiles were left, how could they attack so many targets? Obviously, Ukrainian statements are unreliable. But no matter what, Russia takes another move against Ukraine, and such a large-scale missile strike will inevitably worsen the situation in Russia and Ukraine. Ukraine has been well promoted by this strike against Ukraine. The air defense system has exerted great power and intercepted most missiles. In fact, Ukraine has no choice but to be beaten passively. Little do they know that the best defense is attack. No matter how advanced the air defense system in the world is, it cannot increase the interception rate to 100%.
Russia suddenly took action against Ukraine again at this time, and it also wanted to achieve a certain goal. Destroying the infrastructure to attack Ukraine and hitting the morale of the Ukrainian army is one aspect, and on the other hand, showing strength. Is it showing that the Western countries that Russia's war strength is still very strong. The West has been hyping that Russia can no longer withstand the supply of weapons and equipment, so Russia slapped the West in the face with practical actions. And recently, Russia has revealed that the Russian leadership, including Putin, is still ready to hold dialogue on easing Ukraine's tensions, provided that Russia receives "realistic proposals" based on equality from the West. In other words, Russia is ready to conduct peaceful negotiations with the West, so military operations are being carried out at this time to promote peace.
tells Western countries by showing their strength that Russia is still strong and Ukraine cannot get any benefits in the battle with Russia. The support of Western countries for Ukraine will only make them fall into the abyss of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. Russia is not having a good time, and the Western countries led by the United States will not have a good time either. Therefore, this action is a severe blow to Ukraine and Western countries. If the West cannot negotiate equally with Russia, then Russia will continue to launch a tough blow to Ukraine. It is even possible to actively expand the scale of the war. Recently, , NATO, , has continuously interfered in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, which has made Russia extremely angry. If the scale of the conflict expands, it may be necessary to involve NATO European countries. This situation is something that NATO, led by the United States, is absolutely unwilling to see.
Because at that time, the United States will not be out of it. NATO is the boss, and once it participates in the war, it must bite the bullet and come out to the top. Otherwise, NATO's team will disperse and the United States' international prestige will drop to its lowest point. Therefore, Russia's military operation this time is a real military action and a political action. Next, it depends on how the West takes the initiative, whether the two sides will discuss, and whether the results can be reached, it depends on the game and concessions behind it. But no matter how you talk about it, whether there is a result or not, Ukraine has no right to decide, it is just a pawn.
