Ukrainian secret service attacks Russian military airports: 40 planes destroyed!

In a huge military blow, the Ukrainian secret service SBU attacked four Russian military airports today. Over 40 combat and reconnaissance aircraft, including the legendary Tupolew TU-95 and TU-22, were destroyed. The attacks took place at various locations, including in central viria and Irkutsk. Russian media confirmed the attacks, but without further details about the destroyed machines. This offensive is referred to as the "Spider Network Action" and once again shows the strategic ambitions of Ukraine in this conflict, which continues to make high waves. According to [RND] (https://www.rnd.de/politik/ukraine-greift-russische-flugletetze-min---40-military aircraft-qk64q3clfnndtdhlav5rtmzo2q.html), the preparation time was estimated for the attack on impressive one and a half years, the drones of hidden positions were started in wooden houses.

President Wolodymyr Selenskyj personally monitored the planning of the operation. "It is clear proof of the innovative strength of our military," said a government representative. This offensive fell together with one of the largest Russian drone attacks since the beginning of the war, in which 472 drones and seven rockets against Ukraine were used. Russia reported a massive attack, which further heats up the conflict. Nevertheless, Ukraine remains motivated to further increase the pressure on the enemy.

diplomatic efforts

Selenskyj also announced that a Ukrainian delegation will travel to Istanbul tomorrow to start talks with Russia. Defense Minister Rustem Umerow will lead the delegation. The priorities that Ukraine would like to set in the negotiations include complete and unconditional ceasefire as well as the return of prisoners and kidnapped children. Russia had proposed a new meeting in Istanbul, which is considered a sign of a certain diplomatic will.

drones in the war

What's going on in the world of drones? A current article in the Spiegel emphasizes that Ukraine has gained great experiences in drone use. Security expert Fabian Hinz explains that no NATO army is prepared for massive drone attacks and that the effectiveness of the existing defense systems is often only guaranteed at short notice. This new warfare with drones has turned out to be extremely effective and requires western countries to rethink in the military strategy.

The quick adaptation to the constantly developing drone technology is particularly evident in Ukraine. With the help of startups that offer flexible solutions instead of relying on expensive large -scale projects, the Ukrainian army has a good hand for inexpensive systems that can be produced in large quantities. These developments are not only important for Ukraine, but could also offer far -reaching teachings for NATO and the international community in relation to the future of warfare.
