Who knows exactly what is true. From a tactical reality based perspective there would be multiple high altitude gunships raining down on active AA sites to prevent air sortie losses.

At best, this conflict is being presented through an MSM lens similar to the Ukrainian conflict. Not much coverage outside what they want the public to see. That being said, we cannot confirm or deny what we're presented with fully believing and knowing that the movies are still playing out in a very bigly way.
