## Prediction

Over the next 30 days, Ukraine is likely to scale up its use of indigenous long-range drones and ballistic systems to conduct a sustained campaign against Russian logistics hubs, fuel depots, and industrial targets deep inside Russia. Attacks like those on Yeysk, Ozon logistics centers, and relay stations in Bryansk will become regular, forcing Russia to disperse stocks, reconfigure supply chains, and divert high-end air defenses away from the front. This will not decisively cripple Russia’s war effort but will raise operational costs, increase domestic anxiety, and strain the authoritarian support network (e.g., North Korean supplies). Confirmation would be a steady tempo of new deep strikes across multiple Russian regions and visible Russian defensive adaptation; denial would be technical setbacks or political constraints limiting Ukraine’s long-range usage.

## Drivers

- Emerging trends: Ukraine’s indigenous long-range weapons eroding Russian sanctuary
- Recent strikes on Yeysk, Ozon hubs, and Bryansk relay nodes
- Mutual deep-strike campaigns becoming core campaign tool
- External support for Ukraine’s strike capabilities and doctrine development
