Ukraine inflicted significant damage on a Russian airbase Saturday, amid Moscow’s continued drone attacks on Kyiv, which killed at least one person overnight — part of a prolific Russian assault that has seemed to dash any hopes of a truce in the war.
Ukrainian forces struck the Borisoglebsk airbase in Russia’s Voronezh region near the Ukrainian border, hitting a depot containing glide bombs, a training aircraft and “possibly other aircraft,” the military said.
The calculated strike targeted fighter jets Russia regularly uses in its air strikes, in an effort to put a dent in the Kremlin’s military capabilities, according to Ukrainian officials.
