The drones struck a long-range missile carrier at the Olenya base, Ukrainian Pravda reported.
Ukrainian drones struck Russia’s Olenya airfield in the far north of the country on Saturday, hitting a strategic bomber, according to Ukrainian and other media reports.
The drones targeted a Tupolev Tu-22M3 supersonic long-range missile carrier at the “strategic aviation” base, Ukrainian Pravda reported, citing Ukraine’s intelligence unit.
Russia has not commented on the attack and Ukrainian military offered no further details.
Located in the Arctic on the Kola Peninsula, the Olenya air base is more than 1,900 kilometers north of Ukraine, but a mere 200 kilometers from the Finnish border.
I am by no means educated on the matter, but I remember seeing a map where they border one another and there being strategic areas China would like and would have a legitimate claim to with regards to ethnicity of the area.
I remember thinking they were just letting Russia screw themselves until they could just walk in. Imagine getting a load of strategic land by doing nothing but stoking the fire and making bullshit statements.
