I would be curious to see how well they were able to represent the totality of Ukraine's population if we're including the occupied regions. Those likely would have different characteristics. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if this more or less reflects the underlying sentiment fairly accurately, given that Russia has spent the last few months running tanks into Ukraine and indiscriminately lobbing missiles at shopping malls and apartment buildings.

Russia is blindly lobbing inaccurate Soviet-era missiles into the heart of Ukraine with the knowledge that they'll be hitting tons of civilians. I don't know the exact thinking behind choosing that method of attack. I'm not sure that air attacks make that much sense. Ukraine already did pretty well in repelling air attacks in the opening stages of the war, so I doubt Russia wants to risk expensive aircraft to surface-to-air defenses. But it definitely isn't making its victims have warm fuzzy feelings towards Russia, and this poll reflects that.
