Zelenskyy Warns the World: Russia’s Skies Are Closing—Putin Fires Back

Thank You for Standing With Ukraine
https://ukrainesupportbridge.com/

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has issued one of Ukraine’s most direct warnings yet about the growing danger inside Russian airspace: the “safe days for Russia’s skies are over.” Zelenskyy says Ukraine is not threatening civilian aviation, but warns that increasing Ukrainian drone and missile operations against Russian military targets and the war economy are making Russian airspace increasingly unsafe.

The warning comes alongside a broader escalation in rhetoric between Kyiv and Moscow. Zelenskyy said the United States asked Ukraine to refrain from strikes on Moscow and St. Petersburg from August 25–27, a request Ukraine complied with while Russian attacks continued. Kyrylo Budanov reinforced Zelenskyy’s warning, saying Ukraine will deliver a harsh and proportionate response and that international airlines, insurers, and partners should recognize the new reality in Russian airspace.

Vladimir Putin responded by calling Zelenskyy’s warning a declaration of “state terrorism” and said Russia would respond if a tragedy occurred. Putin also claimed Ukrainian attacks had targeted three Russian nuclear power plants and announced orders for massive strikes against Ukraine’s energy facilities and infrastructure. I examine what Russia is claiming, what Ukraine is actually saying, and why the possibility of propaganda or a false-flag narrative must be watched carefully.

The video also looks at Putin’s meeting with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, the growing Russia-Iran relationship, and the extraordinary contradictions in Moscow’s language about sovereignty, aggression, national independence, and the right of nations to defend themselves.
