NYT: Russian Federation Will Give “serious” Response To Blows Of Ukraine On Military Airfields

Russia will strike a serious blow to Ukraine in response to an attack on military airfields. This was reported by the American newspaper The New York Times with reference to American officials who wanted to maintain anonymity.

officials said that the operation caused damage not only to the strategic potential of Russia, but also demonstrated that Ukraine is able to destroy military aircraft worth more than 100 million dollars using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) worth only $ 600.

At the same time, sources note that these attacks, in their opinion, will not lead to a reduction in Russian operations in Ukraine, but they can provoke a “serious” response from Moscow.

According to officials, Ukraine did not notify the United States about the upcoming operation, because “she knew that Washington would oppose”.

Russian side

On June 1, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported that Ukraine with the use of FPV thrones attacked military airfields in five regions of Russia.

“Today, the Kyiv regime was committed by the terrorist attack using the FPV thrones in relation to airfields in the Murmansk, Irkutsk, Ivanovo, Ryazan and Amur regions,” the report said.

“In the military airfields in the Ivanovo, Ryazan and Amur regions, all terrorist attacks were reflected. In the Murmansk and Irkutsk regions as a result of the launch of FPV thrones from the territory located in the immediate vicinity of the airfields, several units of aviation technology occurred,” the Russian State Medical University said.
