It kind-of makes sense to me. Western media's full of stories about Russian attacks on Kiev, so counteract that with "equivalent" stories about Ukranian attacks on Moscow. Then follow it up with all sorts of comments about fog of war, two sides to every story, both sides generating propaganda etc, which the Russian media love doing, and you have a narrative to sell to the credulous that "we're only doing what they're doing".
