An interesting attack by launching the drone swarm near the bases from modified shipping containers. Now the interesting part of this would be that the containers would have to have been modified and setup inside Russia, as border crossings utilize X-Ray screening<\/a>. Which all makes me wonder if this was caught and allowed to happen to justify what comes next, e.g. Israel allowing the Hamas attack to happen as a rouse to take Gaza and the gas reserves<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open-source footage circulating on X depicts a coordinated Ukrainian drone swarm targeting Russian long-range strategic bombers<\/strong>\u2014aircraft capable of delivering both conventional and nuclear payloads\u2014deep within Russian territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The scale, precision, and depth of the drone swarm attack on multiple Russian airfields have led some military observers to describe the operation as a “Russian Pearl Harbor<\/strong>.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bloomberg<\/a> reports that over 40 strategic bombers<\/strong>\u2014including Tu-95 and Tu-22M3 aircraft\u2014were damaged in a Ukrainian drone swarm attack on multiple airbases, <\/strong>includingthe Belaya military base, located deep in eastern Siberia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s more color on the Ukrainian offensive deep within Russia via Bloomberg:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ukraine’s Security Service chief Vasyl Malyuk led the operation and losses assessed to be around $2 billion, the official said. Ukrainian drones on Sunday attacked a military base near the settlement of Sredniy, Igor Kobzev, the governor for the Irkutsk region that’s some 5,190 km (3,220 miles) from Moscow, said in a Telegram statement. He didn’t specify the scope of the damage. The settlement of Sredniy is in the immediate vicinity of the Belaya military base.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Russian Telegram channels also published unverified reports of a drone attack near the town of Olenegorsk, around 1,840 km from Moscow. The Olenya aviation base is located near Olenegorsk.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bloomberg couldn’t independently verify reports of large- scale damage to the Russian military bases. Kremlin spokesman Dimitry Peskov didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
