"Russia's Pearl Harbor: A blow Moscow did not expect  - 1

According to SBU data, 41 Russian strategic aviation aircraft were damaged as a result of the attack on four air bases, bbc.com reported.

Russian authorities confirm that drones attacked areas where at least two bases are located, but do not comment on the information about the damage caused to the aircraft.

According to a source from the SBU, today's operation was prepared for more than a year and a half, and its progress was personally controlled by the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky and carried out by the head of the Security Service of Ukraine Vasyl Malyuk and special services officers.

A source from the SBU confirmed that Ukrainian drones took off from trucks approaching the airbases.

„The SBU first transported FPV drones to Russia, and later – mobile wooden houses“, the message says. — Later on the territory of the Russian Federation, the drones were hidden under the roofs of houses, already placed on trucks. At the right moment, the roofs of the houses were opened remotely, the drones took off to hit the Russian bombers."

At the same time, a source in the SBU claims that „the people who participated in this historic special operation have been in Ukraine for a long time“.

„This is the Russian Pearl Harbor“, write the Z-bloggers

The information about the houses from which the drones took off to attack the airbases is also confirmed by Russian z-bloggers.

„Due to the fact that the drones were used from the shortest distance, it was naturally impossible to protect the planes from the attack, as well as to use „Pantsir“, S-300 and so on“ against them, writes the author of the channel about the Russian fighter jet Fighterbomber. — I think the attack was unexpected even for the PVN teams with „Jedi sabers“. So the news is unlikely to be good."

According to him, "today will later be called the black day of Russian long-range aviation".

„I don't even know how to answer this and with what. And yes, we don't have dozens of countries that can send us planes. And what does the Chief of the General Staff think about this? – asks rhetorical questions Roman Alekhine, a former adviser to the governor of the Kursk region and a famous z-author. – This is the Russian “Pearl Harbor“.

„Well, this is a new stage of the confrontation. In fact, it was only a matter of time before FPV drones would begin to operate in our deep rear, - says the military commander of Komsomolskaya Pravda Alexander Kots. - Now it is important to tell the truth. No matter how bitter it may be.“

„Bombers were created during the Soviet Union and are considered a “non-renewable strategic resource“, writes the military channel Romanov Light about the losses suffered by the Russian army.

„This is a direct undermining of the nuclear strategic balance of power. This is a reduction in the nuclear security of our country“, the authors of the channel “Two Majors“ are worried.

And the largest pro-military channel "Ribar" states that the Russian Ministry of Defense was once again not ready to comment on what had happened in a timely manner: "Every time there is chaos and they hit us "there is a bottleneck", and there is a new "breakthrough" along the lines of the Ministry of Defense of Russia, the information work bodies act in the usual way: bury your head in the sand and do not react to anything."
