Strikes targeting Russia's infrastructure have no effect on the frontline situation, Vladimir Putin emphasisedThe strikes on our civilian infrastructure are staged <...> to, at the very least, shake our confidence and undermine faith in our abilities. Ideally, they want to create a rift in Russian society and force Russia to halt its advance along the line of contact — even briefly — to create conditions for negotiations on terms favourable to our adversary. We will not give them a single chance to achieve that.Moreover — and this is important — all these terrorist incursions have no effect on the frontline situation. This is the fundamental point. Any strikes against our infrastructure, regardless of their target, have absolutely no impact on the frontline or along the line of contact.
