According to Russian officials, Olenogorsk Airfield in the Marmank region and Sedney Airfield in Iqutsk, Siberia were targeted from nearby places using trailer trucks.The ministry said, “As a result of the launch of FPV drones from states in close proximity to military areas in Murmansk and Irkutsk regions, several aircraft caught fire. The fire was extinguished.”Meanwhile, Ukraine claimed that the attacks destroyed about 40 Russian military aircraft, including atomic-capable TU-95 and TU-22 strategic bombers.

Most believe that a ceasefire in Ukraine is unlikely at this level.
