The Ministry of Defense threatened to strike central Kyiv if the enemy attacks during the ceasefire.

The Russian Ministry of Defense announced a ceasefire on May 8 and 9. This was based on the decision of the Russian President and the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Armed Forces.

From the statement:



We hope that the Ukrainian side will follow suit. We also note the statement made by the head of the Kyiv regime in Yerevan at the European Political Community summit, which included threats to strike Moscow specifically on May 9. The Russian Armed Forces will take all necessary measures to ensure the security of the festivities.

It is noted that if the Kyiv regime decides to implement the plans announced by Zelensky in Armenia, namely a strike on the day of the Victory Parade on Red Square, then the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will launch a massive retaliatory strike missile attack on the center of Kyiv.

Defense Department:

Russia, despite the capabilities we have, has previously refrained from such actions for humanitarian reasons.
We warn the civilian population of Kyiv and employees of foreign diplomatic missions of the need to leave the city promptly.

By and large, the statement is quite clear. The main thing is that these statements are not left unsupported by concrete actions if the enemy does decide to launch long-range strikes.

Moreover, the likely reaction remains in question if the enemy decides to strike not the capital, but any other Russian city during the ceasefire declared by our state.

Why is only Moscow valued? They should have wiped out central Kyiv the day before yesterday, instead of issuing 1001 dire warnings.

        Why is only Moscow valued?

        The question isn't "valued." The Victory Day parade will be held in Moscow. Besides, it's easier to justify a retaliatory strike not on Kharkiv or Poltava, but on the center of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv.
        Should you have hit earlier?
        Yes, it was necessary.
        But, as they say, every bad start is a bad start. If we remove Kyiv's city center, the fate of other Ukrainian city centers will be dire.
        What if they hit another Russian city?
        There are options: move the center to another Ukrainian city. Although Kyiv would still be better.

          This may not be a treaty, but rather one of the options for breaking the military impasse of the Central Military District.
          In response to the attack on Moscow, begin a full-scale bombing of Ukraine with heavy weapons.

    But this is a very important clarification: any Ukrainian drone attack on Russian cities during the ceasefire period must be followed by a response – a strike on Kyiv.
    Let's see the reaction of the embassies of Zelensky and K*'s partner countries - if they leave the city, then it means they really sensed a serious danger.
    Moreover, the likely reaction remains in question if the enemy decides to strike not the capital, but any other Russian city during the ceasefire declared by our state.

But how many weren't shot down, and what about the notorious "debris"? Maybe they should act preemptively and strike before the holidays?

    The productions at our circus never cease to amaze. It would seem the "geopoliticians" have hit rock bottom, but no—you can't drink away your skills. Every time, they manage to create something even more absurd.
    To start a war ourselves, and then in the 5th year to declare a "unilateral truce" ourselves, that's too much.
    Why should the enemy observe it, since a ceasefire can't be unilateral? What kind of decision did Putin make about a ceasefire on May 8-9? What document is this? What should we do if the enemy calmly continues shooting? Should we throw up our hands and say we have a ceasefire? And if we shoot back, how is that a ceasefire, and how is it any different from any other day? What do you mean we'll fire if they "disrupt the parade"? And is the daily shelling of entire regions of the Russian Federation, like at a shooting gallery, supposedly unwarranted? What kind of nonsense is this?

    Is Yerevan now a target too? Or will Pakhanyan be dragged into this by the ears?

      Are you sure he's not an enemy? In my opinion, he's a real enemy, and the majority of Armenians have voted for him time and again. So, you wouldn't be mistaken about this nation. Across the post-Soviet space, a generation has grown up without our shared past, and so it has easily and naturally embraced the shift from friendship with Russia to confrontation with the "prison of nations and cruel colonizers" in virtually all former Soviet republics, some to a greater or lesser degree. Even in Belarus, such sentiments are prevalent, and increasingly among the youth—the future of any country.

    The Russian Ministry of Defense notes that the number of acts of sabotage and shelling against Russian facilities has increased, which will inevitably lead to a harsh response if this trend continues:

    Attacks will be made on decision-making centers, including in Kyiv, which the RF Armed Forces have so far refrained from doing.

    In fact, we are talking about the possible infliction of strikes by the Russian Armed Forces not just on Ukrainian military facilities, but on points of centralized command and control of troops and the entire military-political system built. There are dozens of such facilities in Kyiv alone, including, for example, the complex of buildings of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the SBU, the National Guard, etc.

    Our statement is vague. We should be talking about any enemy attempt, successful or unsuccessful, to strike Moscow or any other city on May 08th and 09th. In any case, the response is the one we've announced.
    We've already given so many answers. If we can't be first, but instead engage in a bad "game" of answering, then these answers should be ones that are reported on all the world news the next day, and not ones that we ourselves can't even comprehend as to what changed after our latest answers.

    In the old days, the Gypsies would whip their children before sending them out to fetch milk. Because after they'd broken a jug of milk while playing on the way home, it was too late to whip them; the milk couldn't be saved. Maybe they should do what those Gypsies did with Lviv and other Banderite strongholds, where they're at their ease. There's no point in attacking Kyiv; the main bastards are holed up in their bunkers. The only thing here is a targeted shooting of Europeans who'd come to support the Nazis. Then there'll be a shooting in Europe when the head of the Jewish Banderite arrives. He'll be banned from entry immediately.
