I think Putin is quite confused about what is terrorism. Ruzzia is at war in Ukraine and it is perfectly legit to hit military targets. An strategic bomber perfectly qualifies as a military target since it is a plane intended to drop bombs and missiles to an adversary 
Kiev is right that they have been able to hit targets at a long range. The fact that the delivery vehicle apparently was a truck (or a lorry if you live in the UK) does not change the fact that they have effectively being able to hit targets as far as Siberia. As far as strike capabilities, it could have been carried out by using a turtle to hit the bombers - this is war and you do not get points for having a pointy missile instead of a truck as a delivery method.
Ruzzia has been caught completely. It has been said that even the drivers of the trucks were completely unaware of the presence of the military drones that were hidden under a false floor. There are videos of people actually trying to take down the drones with stones.
This operation is going to the history books as the biggest aviation catastrophe for Ruzzia's aviation, done by a country with a force 20 times smaller.

But speaking of terror, Ruzzia however targeted cities and civil locations. Seems like Putin has some issues with definitions.
Yup, Russia took a very significant hit. Â That ain't no lie.
One thing I've noted is that Russia has a strong tendency to defer on the use of certain techniques until after the techniques are used against them. Â Often _shortly_ after. Â Cluster munitions come to mind.
[...]
I have to say that the Russian civilians who took extraordinarily risky action to stop many of the attacks have truly earned my respect. Â Based on my observations of the reactions of Western civilians in the face of a need for action, such a thing would surprise me very much in most of the 'West' these days.
That is false information, Ruzzia used cluster munitions very early and well before Ukraine.
So, some civilians started throwing stones a short distance to a drone loaded with high explosive flying in their proximity. You are basically respecting idiots (and that explains many things).

A bridge overpass in western Russia collapsed late Saturday, derailing a passenger train underneath and killing at least seven people and injuring dozens, officials and the state news media said...In a separate episode, Ukraine’s military intelligence agency, the HUR, said in a statement that Ukraine had blown up a Russian military train that was traveling toward Crimea through a part of the Zaporizhzhia region occupied by Russian forces...Aleksander Bogomaz, the governor of Bryansk, said in a statement that seven people died as a result of the derailment in that region. Mr. Bogomaz added that 47 people, including three children, were taken to medical facilities.
Explosions caused 2 bridges in western Russia to collapse, officials say. 7 people were killed
...
The first bridge, in the Bryansk region on the border with Ukraine, collapsed on top of a passenger train on Saturday, causing the casualties.

The ministry also said that Rubio expressed condolences over deaths that occurred when two bridges were blown up in separate Russian regions bordering Ukraine.
The US State Department said Rubio reiterated US President Donald Trump's call for continued direct talks between Russia and Ukraine to achieve "a lasting peace."

Yet another silly attempt to confuse the ignorant, no one is saying that military airfield is not a military target, a passenger train with children on the other hand is an act of terrorism by everyone's definition.
