The Russians have now started to panic over the rapidly increasing threat to their enclave of Kaliningrad. This panic was caused by severely ramped up reconnaissance missions against Kaliningrad. Over the past year, Nato has intensified surveillance over Kaliningrad so much that it has trumped Nato satellite and aerial reconnaissance over Crimea, which is actively used to guide Ukrainian strikes. Nato Awacs aircraft fly along Kaliningrad practically every day, while satellite reconnaissance is conducted continuously. An entire US military satellite constellation now monitors Russian military facilities here on a daily basis, including the base in Baltisk, airfields, air defense positions, and other Russian Armed Forces facilities. Given how unprecedented the change of focus from Crimea to Kaliningrad is, these are preparations for the worst-case scenario to map out Russian military positions for targeting in the event of war.

This intensified reconnaissance has led Russian military analysts to believe Nato and Ukraine are preparing for a strike against Kaliningrad already in the near future. They quoted a German Air Force Commander Holger Neumann, who claimed that in the event of a Russian attack, Germany is ready to fight as early as tonight, and that Nato’s first targets would be strikes on Kaliningrad, the Kola Peninsula, Saint Petersburg, and the Black Sea. Kaliningrad is especially difficult for the Russians to defend as the semi-exclave is surrounded by Nato states that are actively reinforcing their borders with both troops and forward bases. This would make it convenient for Nato to blockade the region from the Baltic Sea, which is also completely surrounded by Nato countries, as since the addition of Sweden and Finland to the alliance it has effectively been nicknamed the Nato Sea.

What makes it even worse for Russia, Europe has already imposed an aerial blockade above Kaliningrad, and Russia can only resupply it by flying from Saint Petersburg through international waters. Because of how geographically exposed Kaliningrad is, in the event of a conflict, every land, sea and air corridor would be completely shut by Nato forces. This would force Russia to try to seize the Suwalki Corridor, which is the only land route connecting the region with Russian-allied Belarus. However, this corridor is located between two Nato countries, Poland and Lithuania, which is why such an operation would result in the outbreak of full-scale war.

Knowing the vulnerabilities of Kaliningrad, Putin resorted to threats and announced that attempts to cut off access to Kaliningrad from Russia’s mainland will lead to an unprecedented escalation, stating that any threat to the semi-exclave would be neutralized. To prove his point, he stressed the importance of the deployment of Oreshnik medium-range ballistic missiles in Belarus. The missile carries multiple warheads, including nuclear ones, and the flight to Lithuania and Poland would be covered in only two to four minutes, giving Nato a very short time window to intercept them. With this, Russia intends to dissuade Nato from blockading Kaliningrad.

However, Russia’s reaction to ramped-up Nato reconnaissance is ungrounded, suffering from logical fallacies and skewering of the truth. Russia has been building up its forces in Kaliningrad for years. Approximately ten thousand Russian troops are stationed there, along with nuclear-capable short-range Iskander ballistic missiles, able to hit multiple European capitals at a range of five hundred kilometers, including Berlin and Warsaw. Moreover, Russia has been using Kaliningrad for years to jam aerial and maritime GPS signals and force civilian aircraft to rely on on-board navigation systems, endangering them during their flight, as has even happened to the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen’s aircraft. Given these Russian hybrid escalations, Nato has only begun more active surveillance of the Russian threats that cause this, while repeatedly and openly refraining itself from more direct action. Despite the by all measures constrained reaction of Nato, Russians are choosing to play the victim, despite triggering mass surveillance through their own actions, panicking and complaining that they will soon be attacked by Nato, even before Nato can begin lifting an actual finger.

Russians have now officially started to dismantle their own air defense, leaving even more gaps for Ukraine to exploit. All of this was done solely to increase the number of strikes on Ukraine, as Russia has begun converting its existing air defense missiles into ground-attack ballistic missiles. According to Ukrainian intelligence, Russia converted around two-hundred missiles in two-thousand-and-twenty-five and plans to convert an additional four-hundred-and-eighty by the end of this year. However, as these missiles were never designed for such ground-attack purposes, their accuracy is horribly ineffective. Additionally, using air defense interceptors as strike weapons creates a serious long-term vulnerability for Russian air defense as a whole, as production capabilities is refocused and repurposed, while Russians already suffer from a serious air defense problem.

Russian air defenses are already placed under significant strain, with Russian military analysts stating that Russia is experiencing a true air defense shortage. Ukrainian saturation tactics using waves of drones and missiles force Russian systems to already expend valuable interceptors, with some units already reporting a shortage. Instead of addressing this shortage, the Russian leadership has decided to prioritize offensive strikes against Ukraine. This decision may exploit Ukraine’s own shortage of ballistic missile interceptors, but it leaves Russia with a thinner and less capable defensive shield of its own, while Ukraine works to strengthen theirs instead. Despite this obvious misalignment of priorities, Russia is now focusing massively on launching as many of them as possible to strike targets across Kyiv.

The latest Russian strike involved twenty-four ballistic missiles, four Zircon missiles, and more than one hundred drones. Russians deployed ballistic missiles with cluster warheads to target warehouses within the city. As a result of the attacks, seventeen people were killed, more than forty were injured, and fire raging for hours.

Simultaneously, Russia is importing additional offensive capacity while prioritizing missiles that weaken or fail to replenish its homeland defense. A North Korean missile unit has recently been deployed to the Voronezh region to support missile strikes against Ukraine. The contingent includes approximately six individual ballistic missile launchers and more than one-hundred-and-twenty ballistic missiles. These North Korean missiles and launchers will soon enable Russia to conduct even larger salvos and more frequent attacks on Ukraine, putting Ukraine’s air defense network under increasing strain.

However, destroying the launchers before firing may be more realistic than attempting to intercept every missile after launch. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha has declared that North Korean missile installations or systems deployed to attack Ukraine are legitimate military targets. President Volodymyr Zelensky has additionally made a decree to prioritize the destruction of Russian ballistic missile launchers to reduce the number of strikes against Ukraine. Zelensky stressed that Ukrainian forces already know how to track the locations of the launchers with the help of Western intelligence support. At the same time, Ukraine is working together with European partners to produce an anti-ballistic missile air-defense system as a long-term solution. The interceptor missiles of the Freya system will be manufactured domestically by Fire Point, while its radar and sensors would be supplied by Europe. This would help to reduce Ukraine’s dependence on the US-made Patriot system with a domestic alternative. If this new air defense system is successfully developed and mass-produced, while Ukraine strikes Russia’s launchers, Ukraine could significantly reduce the number of successful ballistic missile strikes. Moscow is now exploiting Ukraine’s temporary shortage, but it is encouraging Ukraine to destroy Russian launchers and accelerate a European replacement for Patriot.

Overall, diverting air defense interceptors into ground-attack missiles is Russia’s biggest mistake, because they are trading long-term homeland protection for short-term strike capacity against Ukraine. Every gap in Russian protection, which they voluntarily make, creates additional opportunities for Ukraine, which they can exploit. Additionally, importing North Korean missiles increases short-term attack volume but does nothing to repair the growing defensive vulnerability inside Russia. Russia is trying to exploit Ukraine’s temporary shortage by creating a potentially longer-term shortage in its own defensive system.

یار مرا، غار مرا، عشق جگرخوار مرا

یار تویی، غار تویی، خواجه نگهدار مرا

نوح تویی، روح تویی، فاتح و مفتوح تویی

سینهٔ مشروح تویی، بر در اسرار مرا

نور تویی، سور تویی، دولت منصور تویی

مرغ کُه طور تویی، خسته به منقار مرا

قطره تویی، بحر تویی، لطف تویی، قهر تویی

قند تویی، زهر تویی، بیش میآزار مرا

حجرهٔ خورشید تویی، خانهٔ ناهید تویی

روضهٔ امید تویی، راه دِه، ای یار! مرا

روز تویی، روزه تویی، حاصل دریوزه تویی

آب تویی، کوزه تویی، آب دِه این بار مرا

دانه تویی، دام تویی، باده تویی، جام تویی

پخته تویی، خام تویی، خام بمگذار مرا

این تَن اگر کم تَنَدی، راهِ دلم کم زَنَدی

راه شدی تا نَبُدی، این همه گفتار مرا

«نَفَس‌بُریده» روایت خستگیِ آدمی‌ست که مدت‌ها دویده، انتظار کشیده و حالا به آخر خط رسیده...
از «خَزونِ بی‌بَهار» تا «تیک‌تاکِ ساعت»، این ترانه قصه‌ی بغضی‌ست که سال‌ها فروخورده شده؛ قصه‌ی انتظار، تنهایی و حرف‌هایی که روی لب مانده‌اند.
🎵 Nafas Borideh is an emotional Persian Soul-Blues ballad built around a tired, wounded voice and a deeply personal story of waiting, loneliness and emotional exhaustion.
🎤 Ramtin Honar Music
✍️ Lyrics: Ramtin Honarmandan

متن ترانه :

هَنوز در اِنتظارَم و
اَزَت خَبَر نَدارَم و
خَزونِ بی بَهارَم و
دارم می میرَم

کی گُفتِه این زِندِگیه
خَسته شُدم بَسّه دیگِه

گُناهِ من سادِگیه
تو شَب اَسیرَم

عُمری نَموندِه نازَنین
نَفَس. بُریدِه ام بِبین

فَقط بَرام مونده هَمین
یِه بُغضِ سَنگین

یه عُمرِه که دَویدِه ام
آخر خط رِسیده ام
تو زِندگی نَدیدِه ام
یه روزِ راحت

قِصِّه یِ اَندوهِ شَبام
حَرفی نَموندِه رو لَبام
مِثلِ یه کابوسِه بَرام
تیک تاکِ ساعت

عُمری نَموندِه نازَنین
نَفَس. بُریدِه ام بِبین
فَقط بَرام مونده هَمین
یِه بُغضِ سَنگین

یه موجِ بیقَرارَم و
دیگه نَفَس ندارم و
غریبِ این دیارَم و
از هَمه سیرم

آخر این قِصّه رِسید
کی قِصّه یِ ما رو شنید
حتّی خدا ما رو ندید
اَزینجا میرَم

عُمری نَموندِه نازَنین
نَفَس. بُریدِه ام بِبین
فَقط بَرام مونده هَمین
یِه بُغضِ سَنگین

نَفس بُریدِه ام ببین
