Units from the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in cooperation with other components of the defence forces, have attacked the Borisoglebsk air base in Russia's Voronezh Oblast on 5 July, where Su‑34, Su‑35S and Su‑30SM aircraft are based.

Details: The General Staff reported that a stockpile of guided aerial bombs, a military training aircraft and, presumably, other aircraft had been hit.

Information on the consequences of the strike is being confirmed.

Quote: "The defence forces continue to take all necessary measures to undermine the potential of the Russian occupiers to strike civilian infrastructure and compel Russia to end its armed aggression against Ukraine."

It seems like Russia is targeting civilians while Ukraine keeps destroying heavy military targets. If that's really how it goes this is absolutely pathetic for big Russia.

Terrific! Fantastic! Go, Ukraine, go. Take the fight to Putin and Russia. Just keep striking strategic targets on Russian soil. Make Putin pay a HIGH PRICE for what he is doing to Ukraine. Stand tall. Fight back. LONG LIVE A FREE AND INDEPENDENT UKRAINE!!!!
