NOW HUNTING BALLISTIC MISSILE PRODUCTION
Russia's massive overnight attack on Kyiv, including the estimated quarter-billion-euro cost, the 73 ballistic and cruise missiles, and more than 650 drones used against Ukraine. From there, I explain why ballistic missiles are so hard to stop, why the Patriot shortage matters, and why Ukraine may now put Russian missile production and defense engineers higher on the target list. I also walk through the wider diplomatic and political picture: new Baltic and European defense cooperation, Hungary's political shift, Russian pressure on Estonia and Armenia, Moscow's influencer spectacle, Trump's intelligence pick, congressional sanctions, Iran and Lebanon, and why Russia's real demand is still that Ukraine stop defending itself.
