Ukrainian defense forces are carrying out a large-scale operation deep inside Russian territory, aimed at neutralizing strategic bomber aviation — the very force that strikes Ukrainian cities nightly and kills civilians.
This covert operation, named Pavoutyna (“the Web”), reportedly targeted 40 Russian aircraft, including A-50s, Tu-95s, and Tu-22M3s, according to SBU sources cited by Hromadske.
The damage is estimated at over 2 billion dollars. Four Russian airbases are believed to have been hit: Belaya, Olenya, Dyagilevo (Ryazan region), and Ivanovo (Ivanovo region).
A bold strike at the very core of Russia’s strategic military infrastructure.
