The Security Service of Ukraine used UAVs to carry out attacks on the Kushchevskaya airfield in the Krasnodar region and a number of oil refineries. The Russian Ministry of Defense announced the “downing” of 66 drones. This indicates that the attack was massive. This is stated in the new summary of the British Ministry of Defense for April 30.
The air base is home to a number of Russian aircraft, including Su-34 and Su-35. The Russians are using these fighters to attack positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces at the front.
Typically, Russian aircraft from Kushchevskaya and a number of other air bases typically fly between 100 and 150 sorties per day. A significant part launches ammunition along the entire front line.
British intelligence said this successful SBU attack would lead to further dispersal of Russian aircraft, as well as a reallocation of air defense assets to fill gaps.
Ukraine’s ability to cripple Russian tactical aircraft, especially the use of glide bombs, is key to broader frontline defense, the brief says.
Let us remind you that on the night of April 27, Security Service drones massively attacked the Krasnodar region of Russia. There were hits at the Slavyansk-ECO oil refinery, the Ilsky oil refinery and a military airfield in the village of Kushchevskaya.
Subsequently, the satellite recorded damage at the airfield. Several Russian Su-35 fighters were likely damaged.
