    Yes, the quote you posted supports my comment. The frontlines are in Ukraine, not in Russia. The quote you posted refers to operations inside of Ukraine. If you thought that “behind the frontlines” means “in Russia”, the article clarifies below:

    But, ironically, it would have no impact on Ukraine’s deep strike bombing of oil refineries because Kyiv is banned from using Starlink to hit targets inside of Russia.

      FWIW, leading with that quoted sentence instead of a “Did you read the article?” would have worked out much better to correct the assumption.
