Quote: "Moscow's air defence system was operated properly, satisfactorily ... Although there is still room for improvement."

Details: In addition, Putin cynically stated that Russia is being provoked to "respond in kind", and also lied once again, saying that the Russian military was only carrying out "high-precision strikes on military infrastructure".
