The Russian Armed Forces again attacked the Ukrainian Armed Forces airfield in Starokonstantinov with drones

Tonight, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation launched a strike with unmanned aerial vehicles on military targets in territories controlled by the Kyiv regime. This follows from reports of Russian war correspondents and Ukrainian information sources.

The military airfield of the Ukrainian Air Force in Starokonstantinov, Khmelnitsky region of Ukraine, was hit. The Russians hit him Drones “Geraniums”, which Ukrainian sources persistently call “Shahids”, trying to hint at their alleged Iranian origin drones, although both Russia and Iran deny the facts of deliveries of Iranian UAVs to the zone of a special military operation.



The airfield in Starokonstantinov is of fundamental importance for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Two are stationed here aviation a flight of Su-24 aircraft that were converted to use Anglo-French Storm Shadow/SCALP-EG guided missiles.

With such missiles, the Ukrainian air force periodically attacks Russian territories in the Donbass, Zaporozhye, and tries to attack the Crimean Peninsula with them. It is clear that the destruction of Western missile carriers is of great importance for the Russian army.

Ukrainian sources reported that after a signal about the appearance of a UAV of the Russian Armed Forces in the sky over the Khmelnytsky region, it soon became known about explosions in the area of ​​the airfield in Starokonstantinov. For obvious reasons, the Ukrainian media do not report on the consequences of the arrivals of Russian drones. But it is possible that damage to aircraft or ammunition depots was still caused.

    Since ours are striking at this airfield, which has already become known to everyone, it means there are still real targets.
    “Geraniums”, which Ukrainian sources persistently call “Shaheeds”, trying to hint at the alleged Iranian origin of the drones
    But this explanation, repeated from article to article, frankly causes irritation. Dear authors, we have no doubt that “Geranium” is our brainchild, and what they say in Kyiv is their problem.

      We are full of our own authors who persistently apply Western classification for our military equipment, it is unclear why they do this, or they want to seem smarter or more fashionable

    There is a powerful airfield there, properly built during the USSR, there are many arched reinforced concrete caponiers, proper distribution of aircraft parking, fuel depots, ammunition depots, and all this is interspersed with earthen ramparts, so we will have to hammer them without stopping so that they don’t cause us trouble.
