Since Donald Trump returned to the White House in January, Russia has more than doubled the number of drones and missiles.
The attack was already increasing due to former President Cho Viden in 2024, but it rose sharply since Trump’s election in November. After returning to the office in January, Moscow’s air attack reached the highest level of war.
Throughout his campaign, Trump vowed to end the fight in one day when he returned to the office. In the 2024 campaign, he argued that the full -fledged invasion of Ukraine in Russia could avoid the “respected” office president.
But with his efforts to achieve a ceasefire, he was criticized for his preference for Russia by critics, and his administration paused two aircraft ammunition and other military supply to Ukraine twice.
The pause, which was announced in March and July, has been since the president’s reversal because Russia has continued to produce missiles and drones. According to Ukrainian military information, Russian ballistic missile construction increased 66% last year.
Based on the daily accident report issued by the Ukrainian Air Force, the data reviewed by the BBC Verify has launched 27,158 ammunitions between January 20, and 27,158 ammunitions were fired in the last six months of the BIDEN term compared to the 27,614 President Trump’s position. It appeared.
Anna Kelly, Deputy Director of White House, said, “This cruel war was done by Joe Viden’s incompetence and lasted too long.”
“President Trump wants to stop murder. So he sells weapons in the United States to NATO members and are threatened with tariffs and sanctions if they do not agree with the ceasefire.”
At the opening ceremony of the new administration, the White House issued a series of warm statements to seduce President Vladimir Putin to the agreement. During this period, Russian attacks on Ukraine fell briefly compared to the last week of the Biden administration.
But when American diplomats led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with the Russian Foreign Minister’s delegation for the summit of Riyadh, the attack began to rise again.
The talks, which Rubio said that it was a starting point for ending war, followed the arbitration discussion between Türkiye’s Ukrainian and Russian officials.
According to the Ukrainian Air Force data, the attack reached the highest when Moscow fired 748 drones and missiles on Ukraine on July 9. More than 12 people were injured by shooting and two died.
Trump expressed his anger at Russian attacks several times, but his frustration does not seem to affect Moscow’s strategy.
On May 25, Russia started the biggest recorded shooting at the time, and Trump was angry and said, “What happened to him?”
Since then, Russia has exceeded the reported number of launches in 14 times. Trump responded by asking Kremlin to reach a peace contract with Ukraine until August 8.
The number of Russian ammunition that penetrates Ukraine’s aviation defense seems to increase, and the explosion around KYIV, the capital, has become part of the daily life of urban residents.
Dasha Volk, a journalist in the city, said in a June BBC Ukrainian Cast program, “I don’t know if it will happen the next morning every time I fall asleep.”
“Every time an explosion or missile is flying over your head, a lot of thoughts are experiencing my heart. I will die now.”
‘Vulnerable’ against Ukrainian air attacks
Senator Chris Kuns, a senior Democratic Party of the US Senator’s Foreign Relations Committee, said Trump’s decision to stop the weapon supply to the BBC and a wide range of approaches to Russian relations could be attacked by Kremlin.
“Putin was bold by Trump’s weaknesses and increased his malicious assault against Ukrainians, and repeatedly attacked hospitals, pregnant women, Ukrainian power grids and other private sites,” he said.
Due to growing attacks, the United States must send a new supplier of the anti -patriotic battery to Ukraine. Patriots are Ukraine’s most competent and expensive aviation defense systems. Each patriot battery is about $ 1 billion (£ 800m) and each missile is almost $ 4 million.
Trump has agreed to reverse the previous suspension of supply and sell weapons to NATO members, and as a result, it will supply to KYIV. Trump seems to suggest that the contract will include a fresh patriot battery.
Justin Bronk, an analyst focusing on Russian army at Royal United Services Institute (RUSI), has made Ukraine “vulnerable” in missiles and drone attacks.
But he pointed out that Russia strengthened the production of missiles. The missile and the so -called ‘Ka Mikase’ drone mentioned that they have increased ‘Ka Mikase’ drones such as Jeran -2, the version produced in the domestic version of Iran’s Shahard drone. Prime Minister Bronke said in the US Interceptor missile supply, along with “significant reductions,” and encouraged Moscow to expand the aviation campaign with the increase in Russia’s reserve.
Ukraine’s Military Information Service (HUR) recently told domestic media that Russia has produced up to 85 ballistic missiles per month since April 44, 2024.
Russia produces 170 drones a day and established a large manufacturing facility in the south of Ala.
In a recent interview with Russian military TV, Timur Shagivaleyev added that Alabuga became “the world’s largest combat drone production plant,” and his workers produce nine times more units than they expected.
According to the satellite image, the facility has been greatly expanded with a number of new warehouses built on the scene since mid -2012.
Another structure, including what is seen as an expansion to worker dormitory, is under construction.
Senator COONS warns that Washington should be clear that Washington is not ready to escape the conflict, as some administrative officials threaten their administrative officials.
He added that President Trump should clarify Russia that he can’t simply try to understand the West.
“To do that, we must maintain a consistent and continuous position in the war.”
Meanwhile, VOLK said that the Russian campaign was taken every day and Ukraine’s blockage occurred.
“People are getting tired by these attacks, and they actually affect our lives,” she said.
“We know we are fighting, but it becomes more difficult every year because everyone is tired. That is reality.”
