Yesyk Air Base Attacked by Drones — Buildings Look to be Burning!
Video Summary
Ukrainian drones have launched an attack on a Russian airfield, with at least one successful strike that has left buildings on fire. The targeted base is home to the 859 Center for Combat Application and Crew Training for Naval Aviation, which is responsible for training fighter pilots. The base is also host to Su-25s that have been redeployed for use during the Ukraine-Russia war. The attack may have destroyed buildings and base infrastructure, rather than any aircraft. Ukraine has previously targeted similar facilities, including repair and maintenance buildings of Russian bases. The country is situated close to the Sea of Azov, making the attack a potential example of the close range of Ukrainian drone strikes. The incident has sparked a fundraising effort for a Ukrainian soldier serving in the Povor intermittent zone, with the proceeds aiming to support his military operations.
