Throughout the night from Thursday into Friday, Ukraine awaited what many expected would be a large-scale Russian strike in response to the recent drone attacks on Moscow.
The expectation was reinforced by comments from Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, who stated at the ASEAN forum that Russia would continue conducting regular large-scale strikes against facilities in Ukraine that affect the combat effectiveness of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
