Satellite images confirm the severe blow that Ukraine inflicted on Russian

The impact of Ukraine's bold drone attack deep inside Russia over the weekend has been captured in satellite images, which suggest a number of strategic bombers were severely damaged or completely destroyed.

Carried out on Sunday, "Operation Spider Web" was planned over an 18-month period and executed by Ukraine's SBU security service. Truckloads of smuggled drones were smuggled thousands of kilometers into Russian territory before being released near air bases to destroy as many aircraft as possible, officials in Kiev said.

In a rare confirmation of such losses, Russia said Ukraine attacked airfields in five regions, causing several planes to catch fire. "The attacks took place in the Murmansk, Irkutsk, Ivanovo, Ryazan and Amur regions. Air defenses repelled the attacks in all but two regions, Murmansk and Irkutsk," Moscow's defense ministry claimed on Sunday.

New satellite images from Capella Space, a satellite company, show a before-and-after view of the airfield located in Irkutsk, a Siberian region.

Images from June 2, the day after the Ukrainian operation, show the dismantled debris and ash remains of several aircraft placed along the runway of the Belaya military air base or parked on nearby defensive walls.

Experts have said that the destruction seen in these images confirms that Russia suffered the loss of several aircraft.

They add that SAR satellite images are thought to show the remains of two destroyed Tu-22 strategic bombers - long-range supersonic strategic bombers that have been used to launch missile strikes against Ukraine.

SAR images and footage of the attacks posted on social media also showed that four Tu-95 strategic bombers had been destroyed or severely damaged.
