Ukraine hit a key Russian airbase used for nuclear bombers in an overnight kamikaze drone strike as part of a consolidated aerial bombardment of several border regions.
The 'explosions and fire' at the airbase came as pro-Putin sources also accused Kyiv of targeting a nuclear power plant in Kursk region.
Explosions were heard at Engels air base in the Saratov region, home of Vladimir Putin's Tu-160 'Blackjack', Tu-95 'Bear' and Tu-22 strike aircraft, late last night.
All of these planes are capable of carrying nuclear missiles but have been used to strike Ukraine with conventional bombs throughout the past two years of war.
Independent Russia media outlet Astra said its sources indicated three out of four kamikaze drones had struck the Engels-2 air base, with multiple explosions from the drones picked up by security cameras.
Ukrainian media today confirmed that the GUR military intelligence agency had conducted the strikes.
Regional governor Roman Busargin claimed all the incoming Ukrainian drones were 'eliminated' over Engels - but locals gave contradictory accounts.

Tell Russia to leave Ukraine. It’s not their country.
Fair question. The follow up is what are the odds Ukraine has the capability to strike accurately, deep within Russian territory, with these drones?
We all know that won't happen as long as NATO still has its puppets running the Maidan-Azov-Kiev government.
All they would need is current satellite imagery overlaid with gps coordinates. These drones are gps guided (probably). That would require US DOD cooperation. A bit of no-cost assistance as the US would be doing this anyway.
Commercial satellite imagery would do, from the aspect of resolution, but its not timely enough for targeting.
Stronk goodwill gestures by 2 Tu-95MS at Engels last night! LOL!
2 of 6 Tu-95’s stationed at the base were hit last night.
Tell Russia to stop bombing their own village of Kozynka in the Belgorod region.
If they have the ability to generate accurate GPS coordinates, and pick up and decrypt the precise CDMA code, there is no reason Ukraine cant do this.
We can hope they were disabled. These are primary platforms for launching cruise missile attacks on Ukraine.
Reports that those 2 bombers will not be flying anytime soon, if ever.
The Putin lovers on FR must be wetting themselves.
Keep ticking off the Russians and watch them supply the Houthies with missiles capable of taking out one of our aircraft carriers. That’s exactly where this is heading.
The people of Donbas voted overwhelmingly THEY ARE RUSSIANS and WANT TO BE PART OF RUSSIA.
Biden is doing just great.
That’ll win the war in Ukraine! The Russians are decimating the Ukes with hundreds of tons of horrific FAB glide bombs and losing NO planes. Remember when you were crowing about the Ukes destroying the Russian Air Force in Ukraine a couple of weeks ago? What happened? Why no reports in the last ten days? NATO was asking the same question. They crap canned the Uke air defense main PR guy yesterday. Not one BS lie in two weeks! Put in you application. Shoot, you’ve developed one heck of a Baghdad Bob resume that NATO could easily check out right here on FR.
The people running our foreign policy are just unbelievably stupid.
