Or it will just harden resolve and fulfill the propaganda they have already been fed.
When the only information you’ve bern given about the whole thing is that the west is aggressive towards Russia and you needed to invade to stop their aggression, getting bombed at home isn’t gonna make you question that. It’s just gonna make you believe it even more.
Either way, it doesn’t really matter what Russians think about it. I love to see these strikes.
The immediate impact of these strikes is in forcing Russia to commit air defense resources to protect places hundreds of miles from the front, that they’d otherwise have deployed against the Ukrainian offensive. Getting that for the cost of a few drones is a huge win for Ukraine.
I honestly wonder if this has ever actually been the case.
This didn’t happen before their sons, brothers, fathers, friends, boyfriends and husbands starting coming back missing body parts, with PTSD, dead or not even at all.
Then suddenly explosives started falling out the sky on your doorstep after the above started happening and Ukrainian flags started randomly popping up places.
I know it won’t convince all, propaganda is strong with the uneducated and those the regime directly made. But there are plenty who aren’t thick or have any particular loyalty to Putin.

I’m sorry to the people of Russia that oppose the war. But fuck putin.
I don’t think Russians oppose the war. Everything I’m reading is somewhere between 75% and most, are for the war.
Oh, and since the war started, Southeast Asia has boomed in Russian holiday-makers. So while their country invades another, its people are tanning on beaches in record numbers.
It’s very risky to publicly oppose Putin. Great way to become jailed or dead.
And better they are on a beach than killing Ukranians. The ones that flee are leaving to avoid participating in the conflict.
Meanwhile, Putin needs to die.
Yeah, some random Russian pollster calls you and asks if you approve of the war. Are you honest or are you going to say what they want to hear so they don’t report you to someone?
25% is still pretty big portion of the population
Interesting to see all the offensive campaigns going on from Ukraine.
Russians started the war with the childish notion that they can bomb ukranians all they want and that ukranians wont bomb them back.
The sowed the wind, now they shall reap the whirlwind.
Was Russia not expecting a lot of rich countries to give weapons to Ukraine?
I don’t know what they were expecting.
They got too high on their own propaganda and copium supply
They had planned for Ukraine to be taken in a matter of days. Take Kyiv, replace the government with their own puppet, and done. So much for that plan when they find themselves targetted by drones, a short-lived military coup, tank and infantry warfare against NATO gear, and the rest of this mess. Imploding Russia’s credibility as a military power.
After Georgia and Crimea, probably not. A Yes Man advisor probably got asked about invasion scenarios and told Putin what he wanted to hear.
Oh it’s gonna be worse than that. Whirlwinds don’t usually read mach+ speeds…
