For more than three years, most of Russia has viewed the war sparked by the Kremlin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine from afar. Now, some say, an audacious attack by Kyiv deep inside Russia means it has arrived on their doorstep.

For more than three years, most of Russia has viewed the war sparked by the Kremlin’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine from afar.

Now, some say, following an audacious attack by Ukraine that saw hordes of drones smuggled into Russia and then deployed on June 1 to wipe out dozens of long-range bombers, it has arrived on their doorstep.

In the Irkutsk, Murmansk, Ryazan, and Ivanovo regions, drones struck air bases, shocking Russian authorities and citizens.

“It was a fiery hell,” residents of the Irkutsk region told RFE/RL’s Siberia Realities.

In Siberia, some 4,000 km away, residents appeared to be shaken.

“Now the war has reached us too,” residents told Siberia Realities.

      There is a ignore button for you to use.

      I’ve always found it enlightening when people assert their personal feelings as objective truth. Tells a lot about you, as a person.

      So, you don’t believe in Russian disinfo?

      Why did you stop calling me a Russian troll?

      Why can’t you answer ANYTHING?

        Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

          Whst exactly do you think I’ve asserted at any point in this thread, except for personal facts about me, like that I’m part of the Finnish Defence Forces?

          I’ve explicitly stated I’ve not asserted anyone being definitely something. So please, do enlighten me?

          Perhaps your English isn’t yet on the level where you can distinguish “assert” and “imply”?
