Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has warned that it was "inevitable" that "war" would come to Russia after authorities there were forced to temporarily close a busy Moscow airport following an overnight drone attack on the capital.

Ah, the little known "true flag operation". Very sophisticated psyop technique wherein you attack a country you are already at war with, and then admit it. Often has a powerful psychological effect.
Russia already has gaps in their air defense ON THE FRONT LINE. Getting Russia to pull back enough antiair to protect Moscow would win the antiair war in Ukraine. Also, if this war is all about projecting strength, what would the inability to protect Moscow be considered by the population?
I keep seeing “drone attack” in the headlines. Does this mean they are launching missiles from remotely flown aircraft, or are these guys just smashing small drones into each other’s buildings kamikaze style?
Honestly, I don't get the point of calling a small attack like this on a civilian target a victory. I understand bridges and other infrastructure with military value, military targets in general etc., but this is a basically random building. The fact that the ministry owned it seemes a very stretched motivation, not to talk about "several ministries have offices in this district"... I mean, it's Moscow city, like the city of London, it's basically just offices.
I feel like we should not cross the line where we justify attacks on civilians, and let Russia be the only one committing war crimes by doing that (and hopefully paying the price).
I can't understand why people see attacking civilians as a god thing. I mean if you can justify that you must be able to justify 9/11 because US was invading another country (this statement is always true no matter when you read it). I can't understand why they want to be like Russia and attack civilians.
