I also saw a report of a ‘second wave’, just hard to really know...

Not many pictures of the Ukrainian Bober UAV.
I hope they have several thousand of these ready to launch.

Drones are certainly taking some of the tedium out of destroying the old Soviet arsenals.

PIF: "Russian freedom fighters who have been doing internal drone attacks."
Per Russian media, the "Edelweiss" plan has been implemented in Pskov, with extra armed police deployed to the airbase as a stopgap.

It appears to me that the "Edelweiss" plan involves multiple people on foot looking for "partisans".

“The “Edelweiss Plan”... brings All Employees of the Internal Affairs Ministry and Local Police Departments to the Defense of the Region by Federal Directive.”
Sounds like it puts local security forces under Military control.

While the Bryansk attack appears to be “Beaver” drones, I suspect the Pskov attacks might be copter drones.
Pskov is even closer to the Estonian border than the TU-22 base struck last week. Either there is a SOF unit operating in the area, or some Russian partisans. Possibly crossing from Estonia or Latvia.

I saw a report that Australian drones made with cardboard (non-radar reflective) were used in another airfield attack in Russia recently (Kursk).

"Corvo Precision Payload Delivery System drones... are described by SYPAQ as "the cardboard plane," but per an earlier company press release they're made from waxed foamboard. They come flat-packed and can fly up to 75 miles"

“Reportedly a burning Russian Il-76 at Pskov Airbase”
That one looks like a full write off of the $50 million purchase price.
