2 prong attack. Drones flying over Red Square dropping anti-Putin caricatures (but no munitions) and then an all out blitz on the places whose air defenses got moved away.

There is no strategic benefit to attacking the parade, as much as I would love to see that. Would rather they stick it to exposed assets.

Zelensky should send those long range prop driven planes filled with Gulag Archipelago books and drop them all over moscow during parade activities while blowing there mil asset **** all over the place.

Don't target the parade. Target all the air defense units.

At this point, I wouldnt be surprised if its a Putin stunt double leading the parade.

I don't think they target the parade. But don't dismiss the strategic value of having a couple key landmarks hit while the Moscow public watches. Exposing a strongman as being weak is what encourages conspirators to initiate a coup.

Ukraine hits a Russian warship in the Caspian Sea.

"Ukraine's General Staff announced that FP-1 drones struck a Project 22800 Karakurt-class missile corvette at the Kaspiysk naval base in Dagestan overnight on May 7. The Karakurt-class vessel is capable of launching Kalibr cruise missiles; the extent of damage from the strike is still being assessed, per the General Staff statement."
