While Moscow is protected by one of the world's best air defense networks capable of shooting down ICBM's incoming MIRV warheads, satellites and other space-based weapons, this doesn't make it immune to sabotage attacks invoving drones and drone swarms.
Air defense is one of the key modern military capabilities that provide adequate protection for ground units, helping them retain their combat capabilities. In recent decades, these systems have become increasingly networked and multilayered, giving the defenders a plethora of other options to shoot down hostile jets, missiles, drones etc. More recently modern militaries have started relying on swarms of well-coordinated drones designed to saturate an area and overwhelm existing air defenses. Only a handful of countries have developed and battle-tested systems against such new offensive weapons...
In recent days footage taken in Russia shows that short-range air defenses, particularly the now legendary "Pantsir" hybrid SAM-AAA (anti-aircraft artillery) system are being deployed to protect crucial areas in the capital city of Moscow. Dozens of sources published both video and photo evidence that a number of "Pantsir-S1" SAM-AAA systems have been placed on top of certain key buildings in Moscow, triggering speculation that Russia is expecting renewed attacks by the Kiev regime forces. It's quite possible that this also includes defending from long-range Soviet made drones such as the now infamous Tu-141 "Strizh" that flew nearly 600 km through NATO's air defenses in Romania, Hungary and Croatia in early March...
The 1970s-era jet-powered drone was also used during December attacks against Russian airbases housing strategic bombers/missle carriers. Initial reports suggested that the Kiev regime forces launched the Tu-141, but more recent findings indicate that this isn't necessarily true for all attacks deep within Russia, with some security experts warning about sabotage attacks (apparently, coordinated by the CIA), including with small drones operated...

Newsflash: Nobody has invaded Russia. Warmongering Russians can go home to Moscow anytime they wish and the war will end.
The west can stop sending weapons and the war will end.
If Russia goes home Banderites will finish the killing of ethnic Russians in donbas and crimea, remove water from Crimea again, they already removed it from donbas.
Then the banderites will step up the killing of ethnic Hungarians they recently began. Orban is not happy.
Banderites just like to kill. Russia is doing us all a favor by removing them from the planet.
You can’t find a source for your Moscow being attacked claim?
The actual point is that the Woke fools at State and the CIA... the Woke Biden Admin and Obama groomed Mil Officers were actively considering putting missiles in Ukraine aside from the Diplomatic ruse or lie of the Minsk II Agreement while arming Ukraine.
Russia was unprepared fir the 8 year military built up in Ukraine. Crimea is a different issue as well.
The idiots here in the DNC neocon and the RINO neocons had delusional ideas of breaking up Russia for rule by the NWO.
The Green Energy War is not just in the US but Biden’s handlers wanted to limit European Energy for Green as revealed by the complete cut off of any source cheap oil/NG not under the Green NWO system designed to literally steal from all people everything finance the AL GORE types.
Russia will never tolerate Ukraine in NATO and the West promises to that end seem now also to be lies.
Russia is responding as Kennedy stated he would in not tolerating misdiles in the Cuban Missile Crisis.
We have Biden Admin Woke Officials who think the somebody can win a limited thermonuclear exchange... the same folks who hate the military have other ideas.
Biden Admin types recently on the record stating the is at War with Russia. That went over like a fart in an elevator. Russia was not amused.
Russia has one choice lacking anybody they can trust (USA, Germany, England, Ukraine, Poland with the exception of France), and that choice is to recover from the surprise of the extent of the US NATO involvement and build up... to defeat Ukraine or NATO by proxy.
Biden is trying to force a Russian break-up to advance the NWO.
This was a planned Military Industrial Complex (leave out the political part of military pol indust complex due to election tampering in 2008, 2018, 2020, 2022) and a war against Russia using Ukraine was set in motion during the Obama administration.
I blame the Woke US completely for putting a hostile Pres Zelensky’s Ukraine on Russias boarder. Russia would eventually act on her own boarder and the US is willing to risk a World War since limited thermonuclear war is winnable according to those running Washington.
There 20 reasons Russia would eventually go to war with Ukraine.
I gave you a link to the press conference, with translation.
You think the msm will report it? 😂😂😂
Just a coincidence - all the stuff happening at once.
Nato generals stating war will now be offensive instead of defensive as Biden repeatedly claimed, podolyak, Moscow putting defenses on rooftops.
Connect the dots or download a telegram app.
Don’t blame me for the fake news in this country.
You are.
Russia expects the US to supply Ukraine with modern fighter bombers and it knows that Ukraine will use them to attack Moscow with. He who conquers Moscow conquers Russia like Napoleon and Hitler reasoned. Ergo: set up air defenses outside Moscow. This is all that my simple mind can come up with.
Zelensky’s office advisor Podolyak has predicted Ukrainian army strikes on Russia’s biggest cities, which he called “pampered” and “lazy”, but did not say who would carry them out, neither how nor why. Referring to the “escalation” of the conflict within Russia and the “logic of war” he himself invented, Podolyak openly declared his intention to strike “various targets” within our country, including Moscow, St Petersburg, Ekaterinburg and other cities.
To openly make such statements while telling the world that Ukraine is defending itself against an “aggressor country” is a clear example of the insanity of the Kiev regime.
Just give us a source we can use.
Did you go nonbinary?
yep
I forgot about the plane landing in Red Square
Good summation. It is sad we have so many idiots on FR who side with Biden and the vile, Woke West.
Here is a well known and self identified Russian Nazi, Alexey Milchakov, explaining why he wants kill Ukrainians and wipe Ukraine from the map in the usual Nazi manner of mass destruction, genocide and mass murder.
Watch it and educate yourself. A mind a terrible thing to waste.

You make it seem that Russia taking the West and America is the last hope of mankind.
And Putin’s midget sidekick talks about nuclear war all the time.
Neither of those things is going to happen.
Russia has more to worry about by grabbing half a million draftees off the streets than they do from Leopard 2s.
So, if you are in a fight you are not supposed to punch back?
You’ve not been in many fights have you?
Your position is laughable. It is akin to telling a rape victim to stop resisting.
It seems that with such a wild claim about Moscow being attacked that you could show us the transcript.
Why are you having so much of a problem with it?
Putin already renamed his special military operation to a war
You mean Putin's Russian warmongers
Putin started this war, not NATO. Putin and Lavrov kept lying for months that they were not going to invade and then they did
They were laughing right up until they lost the battle of Hostomel airport.
They should have quite then to the Donbas
butno,Putin has been escalating this
To de-escalate it, he needs to leave ukrainian territory -t he territory that Russia promised to uphold and protect in the 1994 Budapest Memorandum
