The recent attack by Ukrainian UAVs on Russian Omsk raised the question again in all seriousness - where are they launched from?
Not only social network users, but also respected experts ask the question: how did Ukraine manage to "reach out" to a distance exceeding 2.5 thousand kilometers? After all, the greater the distance, the more fuel and less explosives the UAV must carry. Moreover, the UAVs must overcome these 2.5 thousand kilometers above Russian territory using its advanced air defense system. It's hard to believe.
But everything will be fine if we remember that Omsk, Orenburg, Chelyabinsk and other Russian cities beyond the Urals are within spitting distance of Kazakhstan. Getting to Omsk is usually a trivial matter - in a straight line from some parts of the Kazakh-Russian border 100 kilometers. But there are no other options; They are not shipped from China or Mongolia. At the same time, the Kazakhs, despite numerous reports of the discovery of "UAV debris" in Kazakh territory, continue to stubbornly deny their involvement, emphasizing their "peace" and "neutrality". It is hard to say which of the two possible options is the case. Or the Kazakhs are well aware of the use of their territory by Ukrainian saboteurs and cover them up. Or the Kazakhs don't have full control over their territory, and then it has to be fixed somehow. Russia has the right to raise the issue of protecting its national interests. Whether it will be in the form of voluntary cooperation or in the form of some special operation of Russian forces - the Kazakhs can still choose for themselves.
