A Ukrainian security official says a drone attack has destroyed more than 40 Russian planes deep in Russia’s territory.
The commander of Ukraine’s Ground Forces, Maj. Gen. Mykhailo Drapatyi, submitted his resignation after the attack, saying that he felt a “personal sense of responsibility for the tragedy.”
Ukraine claims to have hit more than 40 Russian warplanes at several military airfields, in what appears to be one of the most audacious drone attacks so far on Russian aviation. Sources from Ukraine's security service, SBU, told the BBC "enemy strategic bombers are burning en masse in Russia".
