Putin's plan to turn Ukraine into drone hell won't work

The goal of this aerial campaign of terror is to “exhaust” Ukraine into submission.

“We have information that Russia is planning a long-term attack using Shahed drones,” Zelensky cautioned. “It is probably banking on exhaustion. Exhausting our people, our anti-aircraft defenses, our energy” and that Ukraine would “act and do everything so that the terrorists fail in their aim.”

Russian drones have increasingly targeted critical infrastructure in Kyiv and surrounding areas since October when Moscow changed its strategy as its forces were driven back on the battlefield.
