NEW | Pictures are emerging of the preparation of the operation Ukraine carried out today, using drones inside trucks. Ukrainian sources suggest the attack has been in the works for the past year and a half.

The asymmetry here is staggering. Not my area here, but not sure how any exposed airframe is gonna be able to survive an attack by swarm. The cost of destroying them is just too relatively low. A milllion dollar op vs a billion dollar airframe is a smart investment.

SBU officials now say this was a coordinate attack on four Russian airfields: Belaya, Dyagilevo, Olenya and Ivanovo.

This is Olenya airbase - one of Russia’s key strategic aviation facilities, hosting aircraft capable of carrying nuclear weapon
