Satellite images of the aftermath of Ukrainian drone attacks on an airport near Pskov, Russia have been released, according to Radio Svoboda.

The photos reveal damage to at least two IL-76 aircraft. The publication notes that drones most likely attempted to target the aircraft's fuel tanks but ended up hitting the surface near the wings, rendering the planes inoperable for 2-3 months due to extensive repairs.
