The videos from the latest Ukrainian attack on Moscow are wild. Though the funniest has got to be how Russian anti-air defense seems to have blown up an oil tank:

In the meantime, I watched some videos, and I have a few things to add.
There is a hard-working integrated air defence, but it seriously fails. I told you about a week ago that I expect a 1000-drone attack. We're on the third day of the attack, and the total number of drones seems to have surpassed that number, but I still think a dedicated day for that 1000 is not here yet, and it might come soon in combination with a "surprise" event. I also said that the AD will cause enough damage, and here we are, this video included.
And a few curiosities from my point of view...
Curiously enough, I didn't see aviation at work, not in a single video.
Funny enough, it's incredible the lack of Russian opsec. Also, funny/curiously enough, is the lack of an ethnically white male Russian population in those videos. A high percentage of the "random images from the streets" are full of Chechen, Daghestani, etc immigrants.
