The Ukrainian Security Service (SBU) reported the information.
According to the report, the main targets of the attack were the locations of aviation equipment, air defense systems, ammunition depots, as well as Russian military reconnaissance and strike drones.
Available data indicate the destruction of multipurpose and attack helicopters Mi-8, Mi-26, and Mi-28. In addition to aviation, Ukrainian drones hit a self-propelled anti-aircraft missile and gun system Pantsir-S1.
During the night, secondary detonations occurred at the Russian airbase.
“The SBU systematically works to reduce Russia’s ability to carry out air and bomb strikes on Ukrainian territory. The occupiers must understand that their expensive military equipment and ammunition are unprotected everywhere: neither at the frontline nor in temporarily occupied territories, nor in Russia’s deep rear,” the Security Service of Ukraine stated.
- In addition, the Atesh partisans in the temporarily occupied territories of the Kherson region and Crimea recorded massive movements of Russian air defense systems.
