The SBU's special operation "Cobweb" proved that Russia is much more fragile than it seems. This was stated by Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal in an interview with France 24, reports UNN.

According to him, the operation was necessary to increase security due to constant Russian strikes on civilian infrastructure and the population of Ukraine, while similar operations may be repeated in the future.
We are constantly working to do everything possible to reduce Russia's ability to attack Ukraine. Now we continue to clear our sky of Russian bombers, and we will do the same in other areas, including on the ground," - Shmyhal said.
He stressed that Ukraine has been offering a complete ceasefire for two months, which the Russians still do not agree to.
They continue to fight against Ukraine every night, every day. So, we have missile and drone attacks on civilian infrastructure every night, and they just keep going. So we have no other way but to simply destroy their military facilities and reduce their ability to continue these cruise missile attacks on Ukrainian territory," - the head of the Ukrainian government said.
He added that the "Cobweb" operation shows that Ukraine is able to "penetrate" not only the border regions of Russia, "but also as far as Siberia".
