Why It Matters
Ukraine struck the Omsk region, located 2,500 km from the border. The region's governor, Vitaly Khotsenko, called on citizens to remain calm.
For conventional drones, a distance of 2.5 thousand kilometers is too long, so the attack of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) on the Omsk region was most likely complex - using medium-range missiles and drones, said military expert Andrei Kolesnik. He shared his comment with Lenta.ru.
“2.5 thousand kilometers is a serious distance, while there are no drones that can fly over such distances. Either this is a series of drones, somewhere from sabotage groups inside Russia, or, after all, these are medium-range missiles, they shoot up to 5 thousand kilometers there,” Kolesnik said.
According to the expert, the launch could have been made from any region of Ukraine located close to Russia. He also emphasized that Ukraine is increasingly using combined strikes.
