The UAVs on the Russian air tabas could be caused from the territory of the Russian Federation - intelligence

The UK Ministry of Defense notes that the Solice airfield is located 650 km from the Ukrainian border. Therefore, it is unlikely that military objects in the depths of Russia have been attacked because of its borders. Dzerless attacks on military aerodromes in the Russian Federation could be made from the territory of Russia, since it is unlikely that unmanned devices were able to fly to an object located 650 km from the nearest border with Ukraine.

This version was voiced by British intelligence in the next summary of August 22. The UK Ministry of Defense reports that on August 19, 2023, a high-probability bomber was destroyed at the Novgorod region in the Novgorod region. "If this is true, it confirms the assumption that some UAV attacks on Russian military facilities are made from the territory of , - noted in the British defense department. It is also reported that Russian TU-22M3 were involved in strikes in Ukraine.

In particular, at the beginning of the war, the aircraft kept intense bombing of Mariupol unmanaged X-22 missiles. "This is at least a third successful attack on Russian farm aerodromes, which again raises the issue of Russia's ability to protect strategic objects in the country's depths," - summed up in the British Defense Ministry. We will remind, on August 21 the military airfield "Shikivka" in the Kaluga region of the Russian Federation was attacked by a drone.

The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported that the UAV of the aircraft type was detected and destroyed, but on social networks there was information that the drone fell on the territory of the air base and damaged an unused aircraft.
