RUSSIA has a chilling new plan to fire more missiles at Ukrainian cities as the war in the Donbas region intensifies, according to sources in Ukraine.
The news comes as Russian forces are becoming ever bogged down in the region as Ukrainian resistance proves to be a formidable opponent for the Russian military. With Putin forced to use more dated, less accurate and longer range equipment as a result of Ukraine’s pinpoint use of HIMARS rockets, the new plan will see Russian forces aim to pound Ukrainian cities.
With the need to turn to such weapons, there has been a reportedly less level of shelling in the Donbas region.
On July 7, the Russian defence ministry announced an "operational pause" of its armed forces.
The soldiers should rest after months of fighting, was the good-natured-sounding message from the Kremlin.
Critics have suggested the “rest” in fact comes from Russia’s ability to source personnel and weapons after such devastating losses following 145 days of the war.
The Russians usually first transport them by train from the Russian weapons depots towards the front and then reload them onto trucks to bring them to the ammunition depots near the front.
However, these are within range of Ukraine's new HIMARS - much more accurate rocket launchers that have recently arrived from the US and which the armed forces have been able to use more and more in recent weeks.
Thanks to them, they have been able to strike again and again in recent days, hitting Russian missile depots.
At the same time, the Kremlin is targeting Ukrainian cities, some of which are hundreds of kilometres away from the front line - with cruise missiles that are not necessarily designed for this purpose.
Last Friday, the Russian army fired S-300 anti-aircraft missiles at the university of the Ukrainian city of Mykolaiv.
Although the S-300s are actually designed to defend against aircraft and ballistic missiles, they can also be used against ground targets.
