US President Donald Trump has reacted to Russia’s overnight missile raids on Ukraine by insisting that his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin had “gone absolutely crazy for no reason,” despite a week of constant Ukrainian drone raids across Russia involving several hundred UAVs.
Ukraine significantly intensified its drone attacks inside Russia last week, with at least 764 drones intercepted over Russian territory from Tuesday to Friday, and hundreds more destroyed over the weekend. A helicopter carrying Russian President Vladimir Putin was reportedly caught in the “epicenter” of a massive drone raid while he was visiting Kursk Region on Tuesday.
