Zelensky Launched Operation M&Ms—Moscow Can’t Fly

I examine Ukraine’s reported “Operation M&M” campaign against Moscow-area airports, including flight cancellations at Vnukovo, Sheremetyevo, and Domodedovo and Kyiv’s warning that Russian airspace is unsafe for civilian aviation. The strategic question is whether sustained drone pressure can impose costs on Russia without targeting civilians—and whether it affects Putin’s negotiating posture.

I also assess reported sabotage threats and attacks in Germany and Denmark, German energy and air-defense support for Ukraine, Norway’s seizure of the Russian-owned Professor Molchanov vessel over Crimea-related compensation, and Putin’s latest claims on peace, mobilization, Donbas, and Ukrainian airspace. Finally, I consider NATO deterrence, Russia’s hybrid pressure on Europe, and the leadership debate surrounding Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
