 Ukraine changes its battle tactics, the reasons for the drone attacks on Moscow are revealed. Repeated drone attacks on Moscow and its surrounding areas reflect a shift in Ukraine's war strategy to chip away at Russia away from the front lines, experts have told the Moscow Times. Russia's capital, located some 450 km from the Ukrainian border, has been targeted by drones nearly every night for the past several weeks, damaging buildings and forcing airports to temporarily close. The once-unthinkable attacks on Moscow have now become a routine part of the war for many. As key of summer counter-offensive in the east and south has so far failed to make a major breakthrough, it is looking for other tactics to change the course of the war, analysts say. Ukraine is in a difficult position, political risk analyst and geopolitics founder Yosef Rabina told the Moscow Times. It has been fighting against Goliath since the beginning, but now it fights a well-fortified Goliath that outnumbers it in every measurable aspect. A larger-scale deployment of drones to weaken Russian defense lines would make sense in this regard. With the attacks on Moscow, Kiev aims to demonstrate that it can bring the war home to Russians, who for 19 months have mostly lived detached from the grim realities of the conflict, including alleged war crimes and the wholesale destruction of Ukrainian cities by their country's military.
