#Melissa has strengthened into a tropical storm in the central Caribbean! While the American model (GFS) ejects this storm back out to sea quickly, the European takes a more westerly route closer to Cuba this weekend. Something to watch! #txwx
Today, a brilliant operation was carried out. The preparation took over a year and a half. What’s most interesting, is that the “office” of our operation on Russian territory was located directly next to FSB headquarters in one of their regions.
In total, 117 drones were used in the operation with a corresponding number of drone operators involved. 34% of the strategic cruise missile carriers stationed at air bases were hit.
We will continue this work.

The combat losses of the enemy from February 24, 2022 to June 1, 2025.
Shocked Russians looking on as one Ukrainian drone after another fly toward the already burning Russian air base.
41 Russian military planes were destroyed in the coordinated attack against 5 Russian air bases today.
Many of them were strategic bombers and AEW&C aircraft.
Photo of the day!
34% of strategic Russian bombers (cruise and nuke missiles carries) have been hit, $7 billion in damage was inflicted on Russian military aviation in a day. The SSU officially recognized the special operation and summed up the first results.
The agency also published photos from the preparation for the operation - with satellite images of Russian strategic aircraft and plans of airports, which the head of the Security Service, Vasyl Malyuk, looked over.
The agency quoted Ukrainian poetess Lina Kostenko instead of comments:
"Did you think that Ukraine is so simple? Ukraine is great. Ukraine is exclusive. It has passed all the roller coasters of history. It has undergone all kinds of tests. It is tempered with the highest tempering. In the conditions of the modern world, it has no price."
The Security Service promised to tell more details of the operation, but a little later.
AUDACITY: My @KyivPost colleague Jason Smart @officejjsmart reports on developing information on Ukraines’s massive drone strikes on Russian bases. It appears that along with 40 destroyed bomber aircraft, Russiamayhave lost a nuclear submarine as well.
STOP whatever it is you're doing, pour yourself a cup of coffee, and then Google "Ukraine" and "Spiderweb."
History was made today.
Ukrainian drones apparently struck four separate Russian strategic bomber bases, taking out (allegedly) 40 Russian strategic aircraft, to include A-50, Tu-95, and Tu-22M3 bombers. That’s over $2 billion in losses for Russia of critically-important aircraft (which, by the way, are no longer in production.)
Russian bases struck include:
- Belaya (4700 km from Ukraine)
- Dyagilevo (700 km)
- Olenya (2000 km)
- Ivanovo (900 km)
Ukraine launched drones in swarms from cargo trucks.
Russia sends missiles and drones against Ukraine's
civilian population centers.
By contrast, Ukraine targets Russian strategic assets.
Seems destroying Russia's strategic bombers wasnt enough for Ukraine today - the city of Severomorsk that houses Russia's nuclear submarines - is no longer not violently exploding.
Ukraine offered Russia a total ceasefire.
Russia responded by refusing the ceasefire offer and bombing Ukrainian civilians.
So Ukraine responded by taking out 40 Russian strategic bombers.
This is completely and totally justified and fair.
