The July 20 strikes caused some damage to the Millerovo airfield of the Russian military aviation in the Rostov region. In particular, the explosions destroyed the buildings of the technical and operational unit and the fuel and lubricants warehouse.
Radio Liberty reports this. The consequences of the “bavovna” [explosions–OFP] were shown on satellite images in video format.
The military airfield near Dolotinka, according to the Russians, was attacked by “Ukrainian” drones on Saturday night. Local residents counted more than 16 explosions nearby, and they were also heard in the area of the oil depot.
One of the photos taken after the impact shows three fires. According to Wikimapia, one of them was at the site of the maintenance hangar.
The second fire broke out in an open area near the runways, and the third – where one of the fuel and lubricants depots is located.
“The photograph from space confirms the statements of Russian sources that the planes were not damaged in the drone strike,” the journalists noted.
As reported by OBOZ.UA, on the morning of July 13, Ukrainian drones hit an oil depot in Tsimlyansk, Rostov Oblast, Russia. The aggressor country’s Defense Ministry claimed that they “intercepted and destroyed” two drones over the region, but surveillance cameras recorded four arrivals.
