The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation cannot protect St. Petersburg from UAV strikes: the State Duma named the reason

The State Duma believes that the main purpose of Ukrainian attacks on St. Petersburg is intimidation, because Russian air defense is allegedly working well. The Russian Federation cannot protect St. Petersburg from the strikes of unmanned aerial vehicles. This was reported by the Head of the State Duma Defense Committee Andriy Kartpolov in a comment to the Parliamentary Newspaper.

He noted that the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation does not have enough resources in order to fully protect the city from drones. "One of the reasons why it is impossible to cover St. Petersburg with an impenetrable air defense shield, just that it will have to delay forces, for example, from the royal village, the viburnum, other historical cities and settlements," said Andrei Kartpolov.

According to him, Ukrainian drones are trying to bring devices to industrial or military facilities. He believes that the main purpose of attack on St. Petersburg is intimidation, since Russian air defense is allegedly working well. In addition, he noted that in the future, the Ukrainian military may allegedly make the idea of ​​intimidation and try to attack cultural and architectural heritage objects.
