Russia‘s Defense Ministry on Sunday said that Ukraine had launched drone strikes targeting airfields across five regions.
“In the Murmansk and Irkutsk regions, the launch of FPV drones from an area in close proximity to airfields resulted in several aircraft catching fire,” the ministry said. Russia said most of the attacks were repelled.
Ukraine’s SBU intelligence agency said it was behind the attacks on Russian planes, saying they caused $7 billion (€6.17 billion) in damage.
“This is the estimated cost of the enemy’s strategic aviation, which was hit today as a result of the SBU’s special operation,” they said in an online post.
