British General Barrons: Russia can change the course of the special operation by strengthening the role of the VKS

This was stated by British retired general Sir Richard Barrons.

His words are quoted by the Daily Star.

Barrons predicted a change in the approach of the Russian Armed Forces to the air force in order to "crush" Ukraine's air defense.

He noted that Russian planes and helicopters "still did not participate very noticeably" in the special operation.

Earlier, the Russian Defense Ministry reported that Russian aircraft shot down Ukrainian Su-24 and MiG-29 aircraft in the sky over the Donetsk People's Republic.
