Drone attack: 75 Ukrainian drones hit targets across Russia

Описание к видео Drone attack: 75 Ukrainian drones hit targets across Russia

Ukraine launched a swarm of drone against targets in Russia. The Kremlin said 75 craft took part in the swarm, 28 of which hit their targets. Those targets included an oil refinery in Tuapse, a city on the east coast of the Black Sea. Video shows what appear to be Lyutyy long-range drones diving on the refinery. Crackles of gunfire can be heard, but fail to stop the drones hitting their targets.
Smoke can be seen rising from the refinery buildings after several successful hits. Morozovsk airfield, around 100 miles east of Luhansk, was also targeted. It is the third time the airfield, which houses Su-34 jets, has been struck by drones. The previous attacks damaged aircraft hangars and may have disabled some aircraft. Another airfield, this one in nearby Millerovo, was also among the Ukrainian targets. Video showed a large fire as fuel burned, with locals reporting 16 explosions.
It is the second time in just two days that a fire was reported at the base. Drones also targeted infrastructure in Belgorod, which neighbours Ukraine. An FPV drone was used to blow up a gas pipe in Novopetrovka. Ukraine has been targeting Russian energy after its own power plants were hit.
Krasnodar, another city near the Black Sea, was also targeted. It is thought Ukraine went after the city’s power grid as well, sparking protests. Residents had already taken to the streets to complain about blackouts, and Ukraine is hoping to worsen the situation as a way of pressuring Putin to end the war. Ukraine has increased its drone attacks against Russian since the start of the year.
Kyiv is focusing on weapons factories, military bases and oil refineries. The aim is to deprive Putin of the means and money to fight his war. As a secondary target, Ukraine is hitting energy networks.
This is to bring the war home to ordinary Russians, to get them to oppose the war. #russia #ukraine #war
