The higher tempo of Ukrainian strikes has fueled discontent among Russians, but it is far from clear that it will change the Kremlin’s calculus about the war. For four and a half years, as President Vladimir V. Putin tried to isolate Russian society from his war against Ukraine, civilian deaths on the Russian side were largely confined to border regions of Russia or occupied areas of Ukraine. Now, that is rapidly changing, as Ukraine uses a growing arsenal of cheap drones and missiles to take the war to Russia. With Ukraine conducting near-constant assaults even in areas far from the front, Russian civilians are dying in long-range attacks at the highest rate since the war began, according to the Conflict Intelligence Team, an independent group that tracks casualties.
