"Ukraine's Drones Launch Devastating Strike on Russian Airfield, Destroying Bombers and Killing Servicemen"

Ukraine claims to have carried out a major drone attack on a Russian airfield near the border, destroying at least six warplanes and damaging eight others. Russian officials reported that eight people were injured, while Ukrainian intelligence sources claimed around 20 airfield personnel had been killed or injured. The attack targeted front-line bombers used by Russia in its operations against Ukraine and is seen as a significant blow to Moscow's combat potential. This marks an escalation in Ukraine's cross-border strikes, with recent attacks targeting oil facilities to undermine Russia's revenues. Meanwhile, Russia has also reported drone attacks in various regions, and Ukrainian President Zelensky continues to seek more air defense systems from Western allies.
