Since the beginning of 2024, Russian air bases and military airfields have been attacked by Ukraine at least 40 times. Most of the attacks on Russian military targets were the result of successful operations of the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, according to the Molfar OSINT agency.

Molfar is a Ukrainian community of OSINT specialists. It currently consists of 35 analysts and more than 200 volunteers. One of the main tasks of the agency is to identify war criminals, refute Russian propaganda, and investigate war crimes.
OSINT specialists are also collecting an archive of events from Russia's full-scale war and developing a list of entities unfriendly to Ukraine.
With the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the Molfar team joined the Ukrainian cyber resistance.
