Last night, long-range drones of the Security Service of Ukraine and the Defence Forces carried out the largest attack on Russian military airfields during the war - in Voronezh, Kursk, Savasleyka and Borisoglebsk.

A source in the SBU told Ukrinform.

‘The long-range drones of the SBU and the Defence Forces (Air Force, Special Forces, Centre for Unmanned Systems of the Armed Forces, Defence Intelligence and other branches of the Armed Forces) carried out the largest attack on Russian military airfields in the entire war. ‘It was a ‘fun’ night at Voronezh, Kursk, Savasleyka and Borisoglebsk airports,’ the source said. 

The source confirms that it was a specially planned operation to prevent the enemy from using these airfields to launch UAVs at the frontline and Ukrainian cities.

‘Russian military commanders are already whinging on social media that the strike was effective and that the air defence system failed to protect these facilities. Local publics wrote about 10 explosions in Savasleyka alone, where MiGs regularly take off and terrorise the whole of Ukraine with air raids. We are waiting for satellite photos of destroyed Russian fighters and warehouses,’ the source said.

According to him, the SBU continues to methodically weaken the aviation component of the Russian military machine.

‘It is the aircraft that still gives the enemy air superiority, but we will continue to cut the wings of these ‘birds’, the source said.

As reported, explosions were heard this morning in the Nizhny Novgorod region of Russia, where the Savasleyka military airfield is located, and local authorities said that air defence systems were operating in the region.

Local media also reported explosions at the Borisoglebsk and Baltimore military airfields.
