Ukraine Strikes Back: Drones Hit Russian Airbases in Bold Operation
In a significant escalation of the ongoing conflict, Ukraine has executed a remarkable drone strike that targeted Russian military airbases, leading to the destruction of approximately 40 warplanes. Dubbed the "Spider’s Web" operation, this meticulously planned attack was orchestrated by Ukraine’s SBU security service and reflects a major shift in the tactical landscape of the war.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed that the operation utilized 117 drones, ingeniously concealed within wooden mobile cabins to evade detection. These drones were strategically smuggled into Russian territory, moved close to military installations, and then launched remotely, demonstrating a sophisticated level of operational planning. Reports suggest that the execution of this complex mission took 18 months to finalize.
The impact of the strike has been profound, with Ukrainian officials asserting that Russia incurred approximately $7 billion in damage. Among the casualties were many of Russia’s strategic bomber aircraft, significantly weakening their aerial capabilities.
In response, the Russian government has labeled the attacks as a "terrorist act," acknowledging the devastating blow dealt to their air force. This development marks a notable point in a conflict that has seen increasing use of innovative technologies and tactics by both sides.
As the world watches the unfolding situation, this operation signals not only a military achievement for Ukraine but also serves as a potent piece of propaganda, bolstering national morale in the face of ongoing hardships.
In a time marked by uncertainty and escalating tensions, the ramifications of this bold move will likely reverberate throughout the region and beyond. The conflict continues to evolve, with both sides adjusting strategies in this high-stakes geopolitical chess game.

Daaaaaaaamn !!!!!!!!!!!
Russia go home.
That's the advantage democracies have. Original ideas and thinking outside the box are encouraged, not punished.
The scale of wich Ukraine will pay for this its unimaginable . Ukraine lost in the battlefield and now all bets are off .Russia will hit hard .
Trump will cry 😭 😭 😭
ukraine targeted civilians in this attack, including children.
100k in drones vs billions in bomber planes
Zelenksy is a fool. These planes are crap. Putin will not end this war now. Zelensky is really not smart. Without any backing Ukraine would be finished. The soldiers dont even want to fight for zelenksy. They are being forced.
The west have no choice but to keep Ukraine free. Ukraine might be toughest proved military without a NATO of USA flag flying beside it .
Language poopstain understands.
Don’t need cards when you have the chess pieces 😊
BBC of course doing the PR work for the nahtzees in Ukraine. Same "news" outlet that has been trying to sell the lie that Russia has been losing the entire time. LOL
Go, Ukraine. Fuck 'em up.
Слава Україні
Свобода знаходить шлях
🇺🇸❤🇺🇦
So Trumpy, do Zelensky had cards now??? 😂😂😂
"Oh and just to mention" says Zelensky, "our covert HQ for the mission was located right next door to the Russian Secret Service".
LOL …. now that's priceless. I don't care who you are.
Long live Zelensky, the prince of Eastern Europe
Long live Zelensky, the prince of Eastern Europe
Long live Zelensky, the prince of Eastern Europe.
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 ❤🎉
Okay, this Ukrainian attack went off almost perfectly against the Russians. Two questions remain however: First, what other assets does Ukraine have in Russia AND what is to stop an enemy from doing the same to a NATO facility? Remember, the Taliban pull off an attack on one of our Airbases (US) in Afghanistan, and the VC did the same in Da Nang. Time for a security sweep on the perimeters of all of our bases? Could be…
I love how the psychotic left loves thinking it’s no big deal getting into a conflict with a fully nuclear armed nation. No fear. At all. I’m actually impressed. It’s like they don’t care about a nuclear conflict because they will just protect themselves with more online gaming and food and grocery deliveries. LOL!
👏👏👏👏👏
Actually, it is the World War 3 already.
A huge slap in the face for Putin.
Trump said Ukraine doesn't have any cards.
But that's fine, as they aren't playing games-
If you ask me
Peace talks tomm5 and the esulate
Mainstream media love bad news in Russia especially the fake news like BBC and CNN are the worst
LOLLLL, and Ruzzia is supposed to be all powerful and able to defeat NATO??
Zelensky showed Putler & Trumpty his cards.🃏
Thus was ALL UKRAINE NOT NATO. The problem Putin has is Zelenskyy is a brilliant statesmen and a damn fine GENERAL. Ukraine has, made itself into avworl DC military power in addition to being ine of the pksnet's greatest bread baskets.
SLAVA UKRAINE – .NAZAVZADY!
It is not Ukraine…
🇺🇦💪 Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦🌻💙
Ufff, Mr. Security should now check his toilet before taking a 💩
Starmer, Macron, Merz and the crazy neocons in Washington will push the world into Armageddon
O fim da rússia esta próximo.
Força 🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇸❤
Putin – more like poo tine hahHha
Yeah the US and the UK had noooooo idea that this was going on at all … of course not. We probably only supplied the drones and ammunition. But we didn’t know the plan at allll ………………….
This right here was the true “Special Military Operation!” 😂
Even so, Ukraine can never win a ground war with Russia, and those drones probably weren't made in Ukraine.
Russia needs to come to the negotiating table or else….
And Russia will respond with cream pies and water bombs..?
