Ukraine conducted a major drone attack, hitting over 40 Russian military aircraft on Sunday, June 1, quoting officials from Ukraine’s domestic security agency, Security Service of Ukraine (SBU).
The SBU further claimed that the Ukrainian forces hit Russian aircraft, including Tu-95 and Tu-22 strategic bombers, which it deploys to fire long-range missiles at Ukraine, the report added.
Igor Kobzev, the regional governor, said that the Ukrainian drones attacked a military unit in the Sredny settlement in Russia’s Irkutsk region.
There were no immediate reports of any injuries or casualties in the drone attack.
This came a week after Russian forces unleashed 367 drones and missiles across Ukrainian cities, marking the war’s largest aerial attack to date. The barrage claimed 13 lives, including three children in Zhytomyr, and injured dozens, with strikes hitting Kyiv, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, Ternopil and Khmelnytskyi.
