Ukrainian drones have targeted Moscow for the second night in a row, forcing temporary airport closures as the Russian capital prepares for a major military parade marking the end of the second world war that is expected to draw world leaders.
The consecutive attacks came before the annual 9 May victory parade, which this year commemorates the 80th anniversary of the Soviet Union and its allies’ victory over Nazi Germany.
Vladimir Putin tried to call a three-day ceasefire for the 8-10 May anniversary; however, Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, characterised the idea as self-serving and pointless unless it lasted 30 days in line with a US proposal that the Russian president has ignored.
They should attack the parade, but with glitter or skunk odor or something like that. Don’t kill civilians, but make clear nobody is out of reach.
