The intensified shelling by Russia is intended to break the spirit of Ukrainians and demonstrate "retaliation" to their domestic audience, says Ihnat, a spokesman for the Ukrainian Air Force.

Massively By shelling Ukraine on a massive scale, the Russians aim not only to commit terrorism, but also trying to achieve different goals and show their population that they are "retaliatory strikes". This was reported by the spokesman of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Yuriy Ihnat during a telethon, UNN reports.

Answering the journalist's question, What other goal, besides terrorism, does Russia pursue by increasing the number of massive attacks against Ukraine, Yuriy Ihnat answered:

Terrorism is obviously Russia's calling card. To break the spirit of the Ukrainian people, to break the nation, to force us to submit to their imperialism, etc... But don't forget that every missile, every drone, everything flies at a target that they are given at the start in preparation for an air attack. There are targets they want to hit. And you can see that there has been intense shelling since the end of December. It is clear that they want to achieve different goals. It's clear that they need to show their population that they are striking back. They do this very often in their reports, inventing the results of the destruction of our aircraft, aviation, and other systems that protect our airspace

- said the spokesman for the Air Force of Ukraine

Yuriy Ihnat commented on the downing of a Russian missile in the Voronezh region and said. "The enemy's weapons are not perfect. This applies to both X-22 missiles and S-300 missiles, and the missiles they are using".
