Ukraine has launched a “large-scale” drone attack against Russian military bombers in Siberia, striking more than 40 warplanes thousands of miles from its own territory, a security official has said, after it smuggled the drones to the perimeter of the airfields hidden in the roofs of wooden sheds.
On the eve of peace talks, the drone attack on four separate airfields was part of a sharp ramping up of the three-year war, with Russia launching waves of drones at Ukraine, while Moscow said sabotage was to blame for two train derailments that left seven people dead.
Video from several military airfields across Russia showed destroyed aircraft and planes engulfed in flames, though the full extent of the damage remained unclear.
Among the more than 40 aircraft reportedly hit were Tu-95 and Tu-22 strategic bombers, which Russia uses to fire long-range missiles at Ukrainian cities.
Ukraine’s SBU domestic intelligence agency said it had hit Russian military planes worth a combined $7bn (£5.2bn) in the wave of drone strikes.
If the extent of the damage is confirmed, the attack would mark Ukraine’s most damaging drone strike of the war to date, amid an escalation in cross-border incursions before a new round of direct negotiations in Istanbul on Monday.
A Ukrainian official provided video footage to media reportedly showing the strikes, in which Reuters said several large aircraft that appeared to be Tu-95 bombers were on fire. The Tu-95 was originally developed to carry nuclear bombs and now launches cruise missiles.
Several Russian and Ukrainian media outlets reported that Ukraine carried out the operation by launching drones from lorries parked near military airfields deep inside Russia.
Ukrainian officials told the media that the operation – codename “Spiderweb” – had been in preparation for more than 18 months. The drones were first smuggled into Russia and later concealed under the roofs of small wooden sheds which were loaded on to trucks and driven to the perimeter of the airbases. The roof panels of the sheds were lifted off by a remotely activated mechanism, allowing the drones to fly out and begin their attack, the official said.

putin is finished, it is obvious putin is allowing russia to be destroyed
why is zelensky alive
why is keeeeeeeev not a smoking radioactive hole?
If I call Putin, ‘Putin the Weak’, then what does analysis at MI6 think?
The Russians, Chinese, and to a lesser extent, the New Free World, are victims of the Nazi Wests failed capitalist system. The only reason why this system has survived for so long, is the debt junkie fix. Well over 50 years of debt, and even though this debt is enormous, it’s been wasted on bust banks, aircraft carriers on trips to the South China Sea, and countless fake wars, including the sham War on Terror.
It is abhorrent that the Nazis would do anything of benefit for their thicko sheeple. Thames Water with some £18 billion in debt, yet the Nazis are going to introduce draconian water pricing. The motorways aren’t safe for pot holes, but MI6 can launch terror attacks deep inside Russia, as they hide behind the UKrainian Nazi monika, and wait, the thicko sheeple are literally just as responsible for attacks carried out by the Nazi one party state.
Ignorance is no defence in law, but heck, the Nazis don’t give a crap about the laws, even if they wrote them.
We have Donald Hitler reveal himself to be a better liar than Boris Johnson. He sits behind a desk that has the biggest intel gathering operation, and he doesn’t know MI6 just tried to murder Putin, for the 5th or 6th time, and failed… ‘I have heard that’.
The other day I was listening to ‘What’s going on with shipping’, & he was talking about the Baltic and deep sea cables Nord Stream. He reeled off a list of countries that could have done it, but Nazi UK wasn’t mentioned, and it’s almost the same with pundits on UKraine. They mention everyone under the Sun, but never MI6. Ritter only went as far as saying ‘the British could be behind it’.
Taking out nuclear bombers is a trifle in military terms. Carriers are redundant, and long range bombers are close behind carriers. We are in the missile and drone age, and we are on the cusp of seeing Russian missiles rain down on Europe, and hopefully, Amerika.
There appears to be a massive gagging operation going on, and this is on both sides, so don’t be surprised when this site, and most relevant NaziTube channels gets shut down.
A Duran video has just popped into my feed at 6.16am, it’s about Nazi Labours plan to retire Nazi Starmer. Clearly, the Duran can’t discuss serious matters, I wonder why. I don’t wonder why, I know why.
Rail derailments are a favourite UK Nazi state tactic.
One can only cross one’s fingers, that Putin decides to do the right things, or he is pressured so hard that he has no choice, or he is removed from power.
Me, I would nuke London and Kiev. This ends only one way. Either Russia and the New Free World prevail, or the Nazis take over. Russian resources are the key to controlling China, the BrIcS, and NFW.
The Russians must break from only military targets, because most Nazi targets in Russia are civilian.

But that film of Hamas releasing those children

and seeing helicopter gunships shooting the children running for freedom

This is very difficult to believe. For instance, how is it that 40 very costly planes were simply left on tarmacs? Why were they at least not in hangers? And how did the Ukrainian trucks carrying the bombs manage to get all the way to Siberia undetected?
At the time of this alleged bombing incident, the Russian delegation had already left for the talks in Istanbul. Clearly enough, someone does not want those talks to proceed. And that ‘someone’ is not the Russians.
“”Ukraine has launched a “large-scale” drone attack against Russian military bombers in Siberia””
you writte. But that is wrong ! It is not the UK, it is the NATO who is in the Ukraine, where they
should not be and where they officialy are not ! Only NATO has these high tech drones with technique and soldiers who are able to use it.
Western Zionist governments order Zelensky to fight until the last Ukrainian Christian, and Ukraine becomes a Satanic Zionist State, a greater Israel.
Ukraine has not done anything, it is part of Russia. NATO has done something
It will be war against Russia because they’re just not stopping.

When Arab resistance movements against western invaders used captured artillery and other munitions to make roadside bombs we invaders call them IEDs or improvised explosive devises, like they were illegal weapons comparable to dog sh!t on their boots. All drone devices are essentially IEDs and will be until they are produced as bombs, but it’s odd how when we our thugs do it it’s no longer improvised but “innovative”.
When a soldier in the field takes a munition and makes a bomb and lays it in a war theatre, that bomb has more legitimacy than does the conventional bombs from which it was made, which was produced by war profiteers for war profits, too far from battle to ever hear the bang. Had the Ukrainians pulled off this attack they could consider they made legitimate IEDs, but with western fingerprints all over this attack on civilian infrastructure far behind the lines it becomes not a noble act but a terrorist strike.
What gibberish, nothing of the sort happened. From the fake names of this article to the fake drone attack “deep into Siberia” , they are trying to make this into something real. Mainstream news is pushing this to overdrive.
The west is gloating that the attack on Russia’s bridges and trains deep in the Russian interior is Russia’s Pearl Harbour, but Pearl Harbour isn’t quite the atrocity the US paints it as. The Japanese didn’t attack America, they attacked American assets in an American colony 3,000 miles from America–a bit like a British politician claiming Britain was attacked if somebody dropped bombs on our base in Cyprus. This attack on Russia was an attack on Russia not a distant colony of Russia’s, and the only comparison with Pearl Harbour is the ±3,000 miles inside Russia while Pearl Harbour is ±3,000 miles away from America.
And if it was a Pearl Harbour event we shouldn’t be boasting about it.
Jew NATO doesn’t want to lose Ukraine, as it was slated for the new Rothschild International Crime Capital; “Big Israel”. Russia will have to crush them. The gloves will come off. It’s interesting to witness Jew NATO scrambling to do something without manpower & weapons. Paper tigers talkin’ shit! Punks with no industry now, thanks to Jewry that runs their countries, who all lost their sovereignty decades ago to Rothschild Jewry, and who, ironically, deindustrialized them, leaving them helpless in the crosshairs of Russia, with only a few obsolete weapons to use against them. What a fitting situation.
The longer the coordinated war between Russia & Ukraine lasts the more whites die.
oh no, the commies are getting a taste of their own medicine
Most is hype, and AI enhanced video. Around 5 to 7 planes damaged or destroyed, and 3 of the 4 attacks failed, because door systems failed.
The thing is, while this means very little in the big picture, most Russians have had enough of taking this Nazi terrorism, and this is especially so in the Russian elites.
The head of Russian strategic missile forces has said ‘We can hit anywhere’, the implication being that targets outside of UKraine are being considered.
If Putin fails to act, and there’s another similar attack, Putin the Weak is history.
I heard Ray McGovern say that Donald Hitler and Putin want to do a deal. I’m amazed McGovern believes this. Let’s say there’s a deal, it’s a 4 year deal tops, and I for a start think Donald Hitler is a MAGA liar.
dear dear…
Of course the most interesting thing about this latest escapade is how far into Russkie territory the drones traveled, which was thousands of miles..through Russian air space..
and then blew up 40% of the Russkies Bomber fleet, I wonder how the CiA colonels and peepe and all the rest of the imbeciles in counterintelligence will spin this one to their mindless cult?..as if it matters..lol
Either way it doesn’t help the Russian situation when most of your Govern-mente are also double agents and some probably triple agents on the take..
in fact it’s to be expected…
Where are pictures of the sheds? Where is the pictures of the remotely controlled mechanism? Why would a Russian base commander allow large vehicles on the perimeter of the base for weeks/months. Either the Russians are as stupid the West claims or this was an inside job.
chesterton: they were in MI6 built trucks just outside the bases. Attacks on 3 bases failed, and most drones were shot down, so around 5 to 7 planes damaged or destroyed.
@cHESTERTON re “Of course the most interesting thing about this latest escapade is how far into Russkie territory the drones traveled, which was thousands of miles..through Russian air space”
FYI Heres the REAL DEAL:
1. The were taken into Ruudua in what looked like regular commercial containers.
2. Those containers were parked in the vicinities of the airports that were
3. The drones were thrrefore virtually on top of bombed aircraft.. they DID NOT “fly thousands of miles thru Rusduan airspace”
Glad I could help clear things up.. and btw don’t believe everything you read in the Daily Mirror 😉
By far the best of the many analyses I have read of the Ukrainian drone attack is this one by Alexander Mercouris:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doLzfQcuxWI
It turns out that the Ukrainian drones hit at most 5-to-7 of the Russian fighter planes. At least one of them is repairable. The ’41 planes destroyed’ is the usual massively exagerated Ukrainian lie.
Oh, well. Kiev got a massive drone and missile hammering in return for this attack. That cannot be shrugged off as the Russians are shrugging off the attack on their fighter planes: It was unexpected and annoying; but it changed nothing in the course of the war.
Its all BS.

@SOPHY
Putin will now been pressed to install a stalinisc
controlsystem (ID + chiping). in Stalins times
