  3. While Russia does occasionally hit actual things, I tend to take the view that a claim like this means that Russia missed it, the thing it missed wasn’t an Iris-T, and it may not even have been in Ukraine.

  4. Russia confirms that it has destroyed the 256th Iris T system and 156th patriot system.

  5. Denying that Russia is capable of destroying Western hardware is stupid and helps Russia. See, there is no need for the West to help Ukraine anymore because Western hardware is invulnerable!

  6. The same day Germany is in the news for sending additional air defense systems, Russia puts out news that they destroy them. They want us to think it’s pointless to send them.

  7. More on this subject from other reputable sources:
