I guess Ukraine never expected that Putin's counterattack would be so fast. Crimea Bridge was attacked not long ago, but Russia's missile had already arrived in Ukraine. Of course, it is just a conventional warhead. As Western media rendered it, Russia will use the nuclear weapon to fight back. But even so, it has caused considerable losses to Ukraine.
According to media reports, the Russian Ministry of Defense stated that it used land-based, sea-based and air-based missiles to strike targets in Ukraine. Many Ukrainian cities, including , Kiev, , were subjected to air strikes. According to Ukrainian media reports, as of now, the air strikes have killed 14 people and injured 97 people. At the same time, due to the destruction of critical infrastructure, more than a thousand residential areas in Ukraine are in power outages. This is also the first time that Kiev has been attacked by a missile since June this year.
According to Associated Press , this time the Russian army used a total of 84 cruise missiles and 24 drones, and the key area of the attack was Kiev. Even the area near Zelensky's office was bombed by missiles. It can be seen how fierce the Russian army's attack was.
As a response to the attack on the Crimea Bridge, Russia's counterattack came at any time. Ukraine seemed powerless to fight back in this wave of counterattack by the Russian army. This once again highlights the strength gap between Russia and Ukraine. Some time ago, the Ukrainian army reported frequent good news in the eastern Wu area, regaining a large number of lost land. For a time, Russia was just a false reputation, and the calls for Putin's impending defeat rose in the West. This counterattack not only re-proves the strength of the Russian army, but also Putin's warning to Ukraine and Western countries: if the attack on Russia continues, then the Russian counterattack will be severe and equal to the other side's threat level.
Did Putin's counterattack work? It seems that it has indeed achieved results at the moment. After Russia launched an air strike, Zelensky sent "send signals" to many countries, including the United States and Germany. Therefore, the G7 also decided to hold an emergency meeting to jointly discuss countermeasures.
It is reported that Biden has promised to provide Ukraine with advanced air defense system to help them deal with air threats. The German Defense Minister also said that he would provide Germany with the "lIRIS-TSLM" missile air defense system in the near future, which is a system that even Germany itself has not yet equipped. At the same time, the Ukrainian Presidential Office also stated that Zelensky and Scholz have decided to hold an emergency meeting of the leaders of the G7 to jointly discuss the issue of Ukraine being subjected to Russian air strikes. From this we can see that Zelensky has already understood that Ukraine alone cannot resist the Russian air strikes. Now we can only rely on the G7, hoping to get their help.
Of course, even if Ukraine sends a distress signal, the G7 will not have a head-on conflict with Russia because of this. At most, it will increase military aid like the United States and Germany. But in this way, not only will Ukraine not be pulled out of the quagmire of war, but it will fall deeper and deeper. With the support of the West, the Ukrainian army's confidence will expand more and more. This will attract a more fierce counterattack from the Russian army. At that time, the landing in Kiev may not be as simple as a conventional warhead. (Not missing)
