Ukraine's drone warfare strategy has brought war home to 'Mother Russia'
Former U.S. Defense intel officer Rebekah Koffler discusses additional aid pledged to Ukraine and the U.S.'s decision to launch an unarmed ICBM in California. Last Friday, responding to questions about recent strikes on Crimea, Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine Mykhailo Fedorov, acknowledged, albeit indirectly, that Ukraine was behind them. He also warned that there will be more drone attacks on Russian warships. Drone warfare is a critical component to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's new asymmetric strategy, likely intended to ensure that Ukrainian armed forces are able to stay in the fight, over the long run, even if they are unable to secure a clear military victory over their highly entrenched opponent. Zelenskyy probably calculates that by systematically employing small scale drone attacks, Ukraine may be able to frustrate, demoralize and exhaust the Russian forces and psychologically dislodge Russian civilians.

Putin orders increased border security after night of drone attacks as fighting in Ukraine intensifies
Fox News chief national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin discusses the war in Ukraine and the growing divide over the United States' role on'Sunday Night In America.' Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered officials on Tuesday to tighten up Russia's borders after the country saw a series of overnight drone strikes that allegedly targeted oil depots. In what appeared to be three separate attacks, Russia saw at least two strikes in its southern regions north of Georgia, as well as outside Moscow. Russia's RIA reported that one drone "crashed" near a gas distribution facility roughly 60 miles outside of Moscow. While nothing was hit and no injuries were reported following the incident, the regional governor said a "civilian infrastructure facility" was likely the target. Russian President Vladimir Putin chairs a meeting of the Supervisory Board of the Agency for Strategic Initiatives to promote new projects in Moscow Feb. 9, 2023.
