Wild videos capture fiery scenes from a massive Ukrainian drone attack on Russian bombers shielded by tires
Ukrainian forces carried out a massive drone attack targeting Russian bombers and other aircraft on Sunday, striking dozens of planes, a security source told Business Insider. The source in the Security Service of Ukraine said that the agency carried out "a large-scale special operation" to destroy Russian bombers deep inside the country. They said that the attack drones hit at least 40 aircraft, including Beriev A-50 airborne early warning and control planes and Tupolev Tu-95 and Tupolev Tu-22M strategic bombers. Video footage captured by a drone and obtained by BI shows a row of Russian bombers burning, sending thick plumes of black smoke into the air.
Ukraine destroys Russian nuclear bombers in air base attacks
Ukraine destroyed Russia’s prized strategic bombers in a mass drone attack on airfields deep behind enemy lines.
The secret operation, carried out by Ukraine’s security service (SBU), targeted four airfields in what appears to be the most damaging and extensive drone strikes of the three-year war so far.
“Enemy strategic bombers are burning en masse in Russia – this is the result of a special operation by the SBU,” said a source confirming the attacks.
Ukrainian security sources claimed 41 strategic aircraft, worth around $2 billion, were hit in the operation, known as “Spiderweb”.
