Ukrainian air alerts are posted when Russian fighters and bombers capable of launching cruise missiles take off from their bases in Russia. Those planes don't enter Ukrainian airspace because if they did they would be shot down. No Russian manned aircraft does "flyovers" in Ukrainian territory.

Your claim that Russia has air superiority is just fiction.

You said:

Russia shuts down areas of Ukraine for hours by doing flyovers of dangerous bombers (Air superiority)

And your link doesn't say that. It does however point out that "Russia's bomber fleet hasn't fired cruise missiles at Ukraine for a month, a sign its stocks are dwindling, UK intel says"

How does your claim of "air superiority" make sense if Russia's bomber fleet lacks ammunition to attack with?

That was the first article that came up when I searched today. Since you are so interested you could search yourself. The article I saw yesterday identified the bomber and the nasty bomb it carries. Ukraine has no defense against it so that’s why everything shuts down when it flies. That’s called air superiority, you can fly over your enemy’s country and the enemy can’t stop you. This is nothing to get angry about, it’s just the situation. Russia recently made the bomber capable of refueling which means it can keep them flying 24/7 if it wants. That’s what Z was freaking out about.
