Russian forces have significantly depleted their stock of precision-guided weapons amid improved Ukrainian air defenses.
Russia’s military likely used most of its remaining precision-guided weapons in large-scale missile strikes against Ukraine on November 15, the American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) announced in a daily that report.
It was noted that the increase in the percentage of missiles and drones shot down by Ukraine illustrates the improvement in Ukrainian air defense over the past month and the effectiveness of Western systems.
“Russian forces are significantly depleting their stockpile of precision-guided weapons and will likely have to slow down their campaign against critical Ukrainian infrastructure. Damage to Ukrainian energy infrastructure is unlikely to break morale of the Ukrainians, due to Ukraine’s improved air defenses and recent victories on the ground. in the Kherson region,” they stressed. analytics.
In addition, ISW believes Moscow prepared a missile campaign on November 15 before Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky presented a ten-point peace proposal at the G20 summit.
“The Kremlin probably deliberately planned a massive missile strike against Ukraine in anticipation of Zelensky’s speech at the G20 summit, as a multi-target missile campaign requires serious military preparations… The official version of the Kremlin in connection with the G20 summit proves once again Russia’s lack of interest in the prospects for peace talks in Ukraine,” military experts said.
