Russia’s Pearl Harbour: Ukraine Launches Operation ‘Spider Web,’ Destroys Tu-95 and Tu-22M3 Nuclear Capable Bombers in Drone Attack on 4 Russian Airbases

In what is now being called Russia’s Pearl Harbour, Ukraine’s SBU launched over 100 drones in the “Spider Web” operation, striking four Russian airbases deep inside Russia earlier today, June 1. The attack targeted and reportedly destroyed more than 40 aircraft, including nuclear-capable Tu-95 and Tu-22M3 bombers, as well as A-50 early warning planes. The airbases hit were Belaya (Irkutsk), Olenya (Murmansk), Dyagilevo (Ryazan), and Ivanovo, located thousands of kilometres from Ukraine. Ukrainian officials described the strike as “strategic bombers burning en masse,” dealing a severe blow to Russia’s air power. Russia-Ukraine War: Ukraine Launches Massive Drone Attack on Russian Air Bases in Irkutsk and Murmansk, Videos Surface.
