“While I don't want to be overly pessimistic, this video just reminds that it's very premature to suggest that the Russian military is all but beaten in Ukraine, and that a Ukrainian victory in the battlefield is all but inevitable.”
You said this and then backtracked when the point was made that them bombing Kyiv with Drones has very little to do with the actual war. The point is that these bombings have as much effect on the war as the V1/2s did in WW2. Sure it is horrible and all but it doesn’t affect the military balance at all. If anything one can argue it’s a help since they’re using imported hardware to hit civilian targets while their army is losing ground. It’s not like bombing Kyiv is going to make Ukraine surrender. Or make Ukraines allies abandon them. If anything it will harden support on both fronts.
