A large-scale drone attack targeted the Krymsk military airfield in Russia’s Krasnodar Krai, sparking explosions and reports of property damage. According to Andrii Kovalenko, head of Ukraine’s Center for Countering Disinformation, the attack directly struck the Krymsk airfield, though Russian officials downplayed the incident.
The attack continues Ukraine’s drone strikes on Russian rear facilities, including airfields, ammunition depots, fuel sites, and other military targets, as Western allies withhold permission to use their missiles inside Russia.
Videos circulating online, shared by local residents, captured the sound of explosions and apparent activity by Russian air defenses. According to Liga, the footage showed drones targeting the airfield, though Russian authorities only confirmed minor damage to nearby properties.
The governor of Krasnodar Krai, Veniamin Kondratyev, stated that drones were intercepted in the Krymsk and Krasnoarmeysky districts. He reported that debris from the drones damaged the roofs of four homes, one vehicle, and shattered windows in another property.
