According to the analysis of the Institute of War Studies (ISW), the attack on Saki Air Base on the Russian-occupied Crimea may be the beginning of a fresh offensive operation of Kiev. In addition, the spectacular impact aggravated the Kremlin's confusion as to the capabilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in relation to the precise demolition of long-distance targets. General Waldemar Skrzypczak, erstwhile commander of the Land Army, notes in an interview with Defence24.pl that the Russians' weak point is inefficient military logistics.
