**Stunning Drone Attack Targets Russian Heavy Bombers**
Ukraine is celebrating a major victory after news broke out that a daring drone attack had targeted and damaged over 40 Russian heavy bombers. The operation, dubbed “Operation Spiderweb,” has left the Kremlin stunned.
The attack, carried out by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), targeted four air bases, two of which are located thousands of miles inside Russia. According to reports, the SBU successfully destroyed or damaged a significant number of Russian heavy bombers, dealt a major blow to their strategic capabilities.
This operation is seen as one of the most daring and successful attacks on Russian military assets during the full-scale war in Ukraine. The fact that Ukrainian forces were able to launch such an attack deep inside Russia highlights the vulnerability of the country’s air force.
**Ukraine Strikes Back at Russian Aggression**
The SBU has also struck the Crimean Bridge for the third time, mining and damaging its underwater supports. President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned a recent Russian strike on Sumy, which targeted civilians, calling it a “fully deliberate attack.”
The Ukrainian government is not backing down in the face of Russian aggression. In fact, they are taking steps to strengthen their military capabilities, including establishing an office to report violations of soldiers’ rights.
**International Community Condemns Russia**
The international community is also speaking out against Russia’s actions. The U.S. Senate has called for stronger sanctions on Russia, and NATO has invited Ukraine to attend its summit. President Zelensky sees this as a significant step forward in Ukraine’s relations with the West.
Meanwhile, Russia’s ex-President Dmitry Medvedev has made headlines for his statement that Russia seeks a “swift victory” and the “complete destruction” of the Ukrainian government at the Istanbul peace talks. U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham called this a “rare moment of honesty.”
**Russian Forces Take Heavy Casualties**
The Russian military is taking heavy casualties, with over 1,100 troops killed or wounded just in the past day. Ukraine’s air force has also downed 60 out of 112 drones launched by Russia overnight.
As tensions between Ukraine and Russia continue to escalate, it remains to be seen how this will impact international relations and the ongoing conflict.
