Russia's aircraft fleet includes approximately 100 Su-34 fighter-bombers and 100 Su-35 multirole fighter jets.

The Defence Forces of Ukraine have not recorded the formation of any Russian assault groups for repeated attacks on Ukraine. Military intelligence says the Russians are trying to sow panic in Ukraine by spreading misinformation about "an offensive on Kharkiv".

No weaponry of foreign production was used during the recent drone strikes on targets in the Russian cities of Yelabuga and Nizhnekamsk. Source: Andrii Yusov, spokesman for Defence Intelligence of Ukraine (DIU), in an interview with Radio Liberty Details: Yusov noted that they would not officially confirm or deny the involvement of military intelligence or the Security Service of Ukraine in the events in Tatarstan.

Rustam Minnikhanov, head of the Russian region of Tatarstan, has urged companies not to rely on the air defence system and to protect themselves by their own means following the drone attack on the facilities in Yelabuga and Nizhnekamsk.

Since capturing the city of Avdiivka, Russian troops have maintained their offensives, but removing access to the Kerch Bridge would significantly impair this.
