Ukrainian intelligence has obtained internal Russian documents indicating that Russia is redeploying air defense systems from various regions to Moscow and the Kerch Bridge, weakening protection in other areas of Russia and in temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories.
According to Ukrinform, President Volodymyr Zelensky announced this on Telegram following a briefing by the head of Ukraine's military intelligence agency, Oleh Ivashchenko.
"Intelligence also obtained internal Russian documents with a real assessment of the consequences of Ukraine’s long-range sanctions. Measures taken by the Russian leadership in response to the situation have also been documented. One such measure is the redeployment of air defense systems from Russian regions to Moscow and to the Kerch Bridge. Basically, these are the two perimeters the Russians have been ordered to protect by weakening other areas on their own territory and in the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine. We will draw the necessary conclusions," Zelensky wrote.
He added that a separate report concerned the state of Russia's missile production and strategic military aviation.
