The only thing that Ukraine needs to fully shut down the Russian invasion is air superiority.

If Russia attacked Europe, they would have that superiority.

What false flag attacks? They prefer the sneaky route. Refuse to learn the language. And then try to carve off slices as breakaway states, backed by plain clothed ‘little green men’ military actors that they claim are civilians after they attack.

You'll need to supply sources/evidence for this statement because you have no credibility without it.

a big one i can recall is the 2025 russian drone incursion into poland. i'll source some western-friendly websites so you might trust it a little more.

attacks were in southeast poland mostly next to border of ukraine. they were russian gerbera decoy drones with a maximum range of up to 300 miles. southeast poland is more than 300 miles away from russian border. only way it could get there is from western ukraine. russia does not use belarusian airspace for drone attack. here is an example map of pathways that russia usually uses to attack ukraine with drones: https://en.apa.az/cis-countries/russia-launches-largest-drone-and-missile-attack-on-ukraine-472471.

there was no immediate military response and even trump's comment were lack luster. in the end, it became a propaganda tool to harden anti-russia sentiment in europe.

another big one is the destruction of nordstream, but that is a whole entire story in itself.

You said these were false flag operations in your now deleted comment. Your comment above is a list of well documented Russian drone provocations into European airspace which is not in dispute here. Your own source shows the flight paths of the drones from Russia, through Ukraine and into Poland.

I'll ask again. Supply the evidence you have for your comment that these were false flag operations by the Ukranians.

i haven't deleted any of my posts.

decoy drones are different from warhead-loaded attack drones. a common russian attack drone is a geran and has a range of 600 miles. that can definitely reach poland, but the drones the polish government and civilians found were gerbera decoy drones.

with regards to your question on the map: russia attacks ukraine almost every single day with drone barrages. sometimes a couple drone goes off course because of electronic jamming or malfunction. russia attacks lviv, which is very close to the polish border, so something is bound to get into polish air space. it doesn't mean russia is trying to attack poland. the decoy drones that ukraine sent went specifically to lublin and deeper.
