Ukraine executed its most brazen attack into Russian territory in the 9-mo-old war on Monday, targeting 2 military bases hundreds of miles inside the country, using unmanned drones, according to the Russian defense ministry and a senior Ukrainian official. nytimes.com/live/2022/12/0…

@VALERIEinNYT Destroying bombers that are, umm, bombing you is "escalation"?

@VALERIEinNYT What a shameful headline by @nytimes... When one party in a war is already terror-bombing civilian targets, the other party hitting military bases is not 'escalating the war'...

@VALERIEinNYT How can you name self defense escalation?

@VALERIEinNYT @nytimes Brazen? Seriously? “Bold” perhaps. And ridiculous to call this an escalation…if someone attacks you, punching you repeatedly in the face, and you finally punch back, is that an escalation? Take your tankiness to Moscow—may play better there.

@VALERIEinNYT The headline, suggesting that Ukraine is escalating the war, is a very unfortunate choice by @nytimes editors.

@VALERIEinNYT ✊✊🇺🇦✊🌻✊💗🙏👊👊

@VALERIEinNYT More escalation is need until Russia with draws all forces from all Ukrainian territory.
