In the Russian city of Usolye-Sibirskoye, locals tried to stop a drone attack using stones. One of those who showed courage in this situation was Belarusian citizen Anton Matskevich, who was promised a reward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to Russian media reports, in particular the SHOT Telegram channel, the man accidentally found himself in a parking lot next to a truck from which drones were allegedly launched. Immediately noticing the situation, Anton, together with several daredevils, began throwing stones at the drones to prevent them from taking off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A recently published video shows how Russians, without any air protection, try to “fight” the drones with their bare hands, with stones in their hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The governor of the Irkutsk region, Igor Kobzev, said that he plans to award these “heroes” with state medals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is known that the drones did take off from the back of a truck. The operation, codenamed “Web,” was prepared by the Security Service of Ukraine for one and a half years. It came as a surprise to the Russians, and their military did not have time to raise their planes – they did not expect that Ukrainian drones could reach such distances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to preliminary data, the drones caused significant damage, as approximately 40 aircraft, including A-50, Tu-95, and Tu-22M3 bombers, were damaged. The information confirms that all Tu-95s that were there at the time of the attack were destroyed at the Olenya base – these were the aircraft that launched missiles at Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a result of the attack, more than 95 strategic bombers and about 20 other combat aircraft were at risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additionally, it is reported that Russia is actively relocating Kh-101 missiles to the Engels-2 airfield, with eight large Il-76 transport aircraft delivering them in just four days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Against the background of these events, a meeting was held in the Kremlin in connection with the large-scale attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on strategic airfields where Russian aerospace forces are located. According to information from pro-Russian sources, the possibility of using the so-called “Oreshnik” is being considered\u2014a plan whose details remain shrouded in secrecy for now. Still, it has already been discussed in the context of escalation scenarios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
