Excellent explainer on the Ukrainian operation. In one guy's opinion, and I am no expert, Russia has failed for years to invest in training, maintenance, and new technologies as mentioned by the speaker where the inability to build strategic capable bombers exists. Further, he mentions that there may be similar operations in place for other targets AND that Ukraine remains committed to not attacking civilian sectors. Last, that the Putin-Trump relationship is a little bit of a wild card. Trump's desires vs. putting in the work is an issue.
