Ukrainian intelligence sources report an increased threat of a large-scale combined Russian missile and drone attack on Ukraine within the next 48 hours. The anticipated strike package is not expected to involve Tu-95MS or Tu-160M strategic bombers but may include Tu-22M3 bombers armed with Kh-22 cruise missiles from Soltsy-2 Airbase. The primary weapons involved are likely to be Iskander-M ballistic missiles, Kalibr cruise missiles, and possibly Kh-59/69 and Iskander-K cruise missiles. If the attack does not materialize in this window, the next major combined strike, potentially occurring from Saturday onward, is expected to involve the full spectrum of Russian strategic bombers.
