Russia’s overnight missile barrage on Ukraine on June 6, which the Kremlin touted as a retaliatory strike for recent Ukrainian attacks on its strategic aviation assets, appears to have backfired — both militarily and symbolically.

Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) has confirmed that a series of FPV drone attacks on Russian airbases, called Operation Spider Web, led to the destruction of 34% of Russia’s strategic cruise missile carriers—effectively wiping out one-third of the air-based component of Russia’s nuclear triad.

Russia has begun deploying a more advanced version of its glide bomb system that can now strike targets nearly 100 kilometers from the launch point, expanding the threat range to include all of Kharkiv, Sumy, and areas further south.
