Despite Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian refineries, which have caused serious fuel shortages in Russia, Vladimir Putin does not intend to search a compromise in the war with Ukraine. According to sources close to the Kremlin, the Russian leader is alternatively planning to escalate the conflict, aiming to take over the Donbas fully. At the same time, Russian experts are openly proposing strikes on Ukrainian critical infrastructure, and then on targets on NATO territory – including the airport in Jasionka close Rzeszów.
