Two Russian Tu-22M3 strategic bombers destroyed after drone attacks
Two Russian Tu-22M3 strategic bombers have been completely destroyed and two more have been damaged in recent drone attacks on Russia’s Shaikovka and Soltsy airfields, NV’s sister publication, Ukrainska Pravda, reported on Aug. 22, citing an intelligence source.
“Two long-range Tu-22M3 bombers were completely destroyed, while two more aircraft were slightly damaged,” the source told Ukrainska Pravda.
The drones that attacked the airfields were launched from Russian territory, the source added.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
