'Sound and Fury' Expected From Putin After Ukraine Pulls Off Stunning 'Pearl Harbor' Attack Deep Inside Russia

  • On June 2, 2025, Ukraine launched a covert drone strike code-named 'Operation Spider Web' targeting Russian airfields housing strategic bombers inside Russia.
  • This attack followed Russia's 2024 update to its nuclear doctrine, which contemplates attacks on strategic nuclear assets amid a proxy war with the West.
  • The strike used explosives-laden drones hidden in wooden sheds transported by trucks, reportedly damaging over 40 aircraft including Tu-95 and Tu-22M3 bombers.
  • Ukraine claims the attack caused approximately seven billion dollars in damage, and experts described the strike as "stunning" with aircraft "burning en masse."
  • This event significantly heightened tensions, bringing the world closer to nuclear war and suggesting a large-scale Russian retaliation that may escalate the conflict further.
