Russian troops are massively shelling the civilian infrastructure of Ukraine because they have failed on the battlefield. This was reported by the intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Great Britain.
As noted, since October 10, Russia has been increasingly attacking infrastructure facilities throughout Ukraine using cruise missiles, surface-to-surface missiles, and Iranian Shahed-136 kamikaze drones.
"It is likely that the primary objective is to cause large-scale damage to Ukraine's energy distribution network. As Russia has suffered setbacks on the battlefield since August, it has most likely gained a greater readiness to strike civilian infrastructure in addition to Ukrainian military targets," the intelligence said. .
