Ukraine may direct its next strike with Western missiles at the Rostov region. There are many facilities there that could be a target for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, reports The Wall Street Journal.
Russian airfields, ammunition depots, and training grounds are no longer safe after the allies gave Ukraine permission to hit targets in Russia. Hundreds of targets are now within range of missiles that are more powerful than the long-range drones used by Ukraine.
The Institute for the Study of War found about 200 military targets within range of ATACMS and Storm Shadow missiles. ISW analyst George Barros notes that this is only a part of the targets. According to him, Ukraine can use intelligence data to attack headquarters and other facilities that change location.

Where will the Russian retaliation take place? I say the Russians have already called the next Oreshnik shot.
MOSCOW, November 21. /TASS/. The US missile defense base in Poland has long been considered a priority target for potential neutralization by the Russian Armed Forces, Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova stated during a briefing.
"Given the level of threats posed by such Western military facilities, the missile defense base in Poland has long been included among the priority targets for potential neutralization. If necessary, this can be achieved using a wide range of advanced weaponry," the diplomat said.
Zakharova stated that the US-NATO construction project, ongoing for nearly a decade with complete disregard to Russian security concerns, has consistently been a focus of Russia's attention. She emphasized that Russia has spent these years preparing countermeasures in response.
Zakharova described the establishment of such a base as yet another blatantly provocative move, calling it part of "a series of deeply destabilizing actions by the Americans and their North Atlantic allies in the strategic sphere."
"This move aligns with the longstanding and destructive practice of advancing NATO's military infrastructure closer to Russia's borders," the spokeswoman stated. "Such actions undermine strategic stability. Coupled with other harmful military-political and military-technical measures aimed at projecting US power thousands of kilometers from its own territory to exert pressure on Russia and other nuclear powers, this inevitably heightens strategic risks and, consequently, raises the overall level of nuclear danger," Zakharova added.

Biden is a turnip. His handlers want to escalate. They may not want a nuclear war, but they may get one.
