According to British intelligence, this attack once again demonstrates the ability of the Ukrainian Armed Forces to penetrate deep into Russia, bypass Russian air defense, and identify any facilities used for warfare.

It is likely that the Russian Ministry of Defense is doing its best to protect such targets and is likely content to balance the risk to civilians with the risk to civilians in favor of maintaining its focus on the front lines, where Ukrainian UAV tactics and the frequency of attacks continue to cause problems for Russian forces
