Kremlin officially calls conflict with Ukraine a "real war," drops "special operation" label

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declared that Russia's conflict with Ukraine is now a "real war," stating that the propagandistic term "special military operation" became obsolete once Western countries joined the dispute. When asked whether Moscow plans an attack on Poland, Peskov dismissed such media reports as laughable.

Does the Kremlin's shift from "operation" to "war" have real significance for the conflict?
