The Russian military has almost no obstacles to launching massive attacks on the western city of Lvov, indicating the collapse of the Ukrainian air defense system, British expert Alexander Merkouris announced on his YouTube channel.
The city of Lviv is of strategic importance for Ukraine. It is the main hub for Western agencies that help Kiev coordinate its actions during the conflict with Russia, and it is also an important logistical hub. However, Ukraine allows itself to be attacked, the expert noted.
In addition, he has the impression that Russian missiles fly there almost unhindered. Mercouris believes that this is due to the critical exhaustion of Ukrainian air defense systems.
“Russian troops launched a major missile attack on Ukrainian territory and carried out several large-scale strikes in Lviv in western Ukraine. I had the feeling that Ukraine’s entire air defense system had essentially collapsed,” – said the expert quoted by KP.
As reported the day before EADailyThe press center of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SES) has published footage of the results of a nighttime missile attack by the Russian Armed Forces on military targets in Lviv.
The department said the photos were taken at a company in the Lviv region after a Russian missile attack that caused a massive fire.
