More than a year after President Vladimir Putin unleashed his invasion, Russia’s war in Ukraine is also being fought on Russian soil, and Moscow is scrambling to protect its borders.

Note: Events within 5 miles of one another are grouped together. Each event may include multiple individual strikes. Some events may not be included, because of data availability. Data as of March 10.

Images of the drone posted to social media indicate it was a Ukrainian-made UJ-22, produced by Ukrjet, with a claimed flying range of 800 kilometers, or about 500 miles. The attack was unsuccessful. The drone brushed treetops and fell a few yards from the station’s fence. Still, it came alarmingly close to Russia’s capital.

A drone hit Dyagilevo airfield in Ryazan in December, and another exploded in October near Shaikovka airfield in the Kaluga region, which hosts the 52nd Guards Heavy Bomber Aviation Regiment. “When you have a drone that carries small explosives, it is unlikely to do much physical damage, but it’s a big reputational blow,” Matveev said.

This is absolute Russian propaganda. Please stop. Russia is the aggressor and invaded its neighbor. Stop trotting out the Russia as a victim narrative.

Because russia is a killer.

Repeat after me, WaPo editors: “Crimea is Ukrainian not Russian. Russia illegally seized Crimea.”

This is just the shameful level of your authors, dear Washington Post

America is backing attacks on Russian soil!!!! WTAF!

Does anyone at WP proofread articles written by russian assets? What kind of rubbish is this?

Hey WaPo, Crimea is Ukraine. Now say it, Crimea is Ukraine.

“Unleashed his invasion” . Wondering if they use the same rhetoric when describing the many US invasions in the name of “democracy” ?

What the is this crimea is not Russian and written by a Russian? You can still delete this article

It ok Washington post. The UK has allowed Russia to create a nuclear waste land border to protect itself after the UK supplies Ukraine with depleted uranium shells. Nuclear is nuclear.

That's totally normal for Ukraine to strike and bomb russian garbage, russian garbage is the one who invited Ukraine, Ukrainian shouldn't give them a flowers but they should reward russian garbage with heavy bombardment, Ukraine has wright to answer with same material

Curious that you've got a Russian writing an article that describes Crimea as anything other than what it is - Ukraine. Are you paid in rubles?

Moskovy Washington Com-Post.

You need to stop using ignorant journalists from Ruzzia writing articles about Ukraine because it makes your Media unreliable source.

Crimea = Ukraine

can we assume your staff represents your views as a news agency?

If only we had a REAL president.

Wow Washington Post spreading fake info that these are originally Russian land

Russia is Terrorist state

Crimea is Ukraine 🇺🇦. The neo-Nazi Russian Federation occupied Crimea and part of the Donbas region. Ukraine is unitary and indivisible. The neo-Nazi Russian Federation must pay for its actions

Written by a russian journalist who lies about speaking ukrainian, has never been to Ukraine, and went to a russian state university which clearly didn’t teach her where Ukrainian borders are.

How about russia respecting its neighbours borders first, and stop invading them?

Your russian educated correspondent is providing russian propaganda. The US & EU have both said it is permissible for Ukraine to target military targets in russia. Things like buildings that store ammunition used to kill Ukrainians, military airplanes used to bomb russia. 🤷‍♀️

Crimea is Ukraine 🇺🇦

B.U.L.L.S.H.I.T

A war that would NEVER have happened if we had a REAL president.

Before the war, only 30 % supported Putin! There where demonstrations against him ! That's why putin started the war ! To get a foreign enemy ! Then over 70 % supported putin ! Russian peopels deserve a president that's respect democracy and human rights

liars

sUpERpOwEr

Is that what Zelenskyy told you to write?

Frankly, I am suprised there haven't been truck bombs in Red Sqaure and IED's all over Western Russia I commend the Ukes for keeping the fight in their country. They keep about their freedom not attacking Russia

Crazy how scared the world was of Russia

Facing arrest warrant, Russia's Putin visits annexed CrimeaKYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin traveled to Crimea to mark the ninth anniversary of the Black Sea peninsula’s annexation from Ukraine on Saturday, the day after the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for the Russian leader accusing him of war crimes. It's almost like he's completely unworried about being arrested by a kangaroo court controlled by his enemies. That isn't putin it's his body Dubble, look at all the pics from when the war started to now you can see the difference. Lmao. Arrest warrant from a corrupt and useless entity. Even the United States doesn't recognize the ICC's jurisdiction.
