"Weaken the opportunities of the Russian Federation": a blow to the airfield of Pskov became the most successful attack during the war

According to ex-Finnish Intelligence Chief of Pekki Toveri, Russia will now be forced to move planes from its usual bases, or it will have to invest considerable funds in protecting aerodromes. The former head of the Main Directorate of Finnish Military Intelligence, Pekka Toveri, said that the attack of unmanned aerial vehicles on the airfield in the PSKU was the most successful operation for the entire period of conflict. About it reports Yle.

"If the initial reports of the four destroyed planes are true, it will be the most successful blow to Ukraine today," he said. According to his statement, the destruction of such a large number of aircraft will have a direct impact on the activities of the Russian Federation. According to Toveri, such an attack will force Russia to take action. She may have to relocate her planes from the usual airfields or invest significant resources in strengthening the protection of her bases.

He noted that such a scenario would provide for Russia to move anti -aircraft systems from the front. In his opinion, any of these options would weaken Russian opportunities. In addition, Toveri considers it unlikely that the drone could be launched from Estonia. We will remind, on the night of August 30 in the territory of the Russian Federation, in the city of Pskov, explosions were raised in the area of ​​local airport. According to the locals, there were automatic queues in the settlement.
