Russia requires several days to prepare for next attack – Ukraine’s Air Force

Yuriy Ihnat, the spokesman of the Air Force of Ukraine's armed forces, said that after the attack on Ukraine on January 2, Russia would need several days to prepare a new massive attack.

The colonel announced this on the "Kyiv24" TV channel air.

Answering the question of whether the Russian Federation will be able to repeat a large-scale shelling since four days have passed since the last such strike, Ihnat said:

"For preparation, I think those few days are enough. To plan if they have certain patterns."

The Air Force spokesman explained that each missile is programmed — a route is formed, where to turn to the right, to the left, where to rise, and where to strike — the relevant specialists do this.

"The question is how many rockets they can afford to release next time. And whether they can replenish this supply," the colonel said.

Ihnat added that the Russian occupiers have long since passed the inviolable stockpile of missiles, and now continue to do so.

"We see that they used a lot of Kh-type air-launched missiles. They don't use Kalibr recently[…]," the Air Force spokesman concluded.

Earlier, the colonel said that the Russian missile attack on Ukraine on January 2 was "the most extensive with the use of Kinzhal missiles."

For reference:

The Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Valery Zaluzhnyi, informed that air defense forces shot down 10 out of 10 Kinzhal missiles in the morning of January 2 and called it a record.

As Rubryka reported, on January 2, one of the most significant massive enemy missile attacks on Ukraine took place, which cost the Russian Federation about 620 million dollars.
