Russian airfield hit, day after drone strikes on bases
A fire broke out at an airport in Russia’s southern Kursk region, which borders Ukraine after a drone hit the facility, the region’s governor said. An industrial plant 80 kilometers from the Ukrainian border also was targeted with drones that appeared to have missed a fuel depot, Russian independent media reported.As the Canadian national soccer teams head to their respective FIFA World Cups, Derek Van Diest is on the scene to cover all the action.
To mark Ukraine’s armed forces day, Zelenskyy traveled to the eastern Donetsk region Tuesday and vowed to push Russian forces out of all of Ukraine’s territory. Russia’s Defense Ministry said three Russian servicemen were killed and four others wounded by debris, and that two aircraft were slightly damaged.
A Russian pro-war blogger posting on the Telegram channel “Milinfolive” on Monday hit out at Russia’s military leadership, alleging that incompetence and lack of proper fortifications at the airbases made the alleged Ukrainian drone strikes possible. Another blogger pointed to the reputational damage inflicted by the attacks.
Speaking in a conference call with reporters Tuesday, Peskov said that “the Ukrainian regime’s course for continuation of such terror attacks poses a threat.” The towns lie across the Dnieper River from the nuclear plant, which was seized by Russian forces in the early stages of the war. Russia and Ukraine have for months accused each other of shelling at and around the plant.
