As a result of the attack on August 3 on the Morozovsk airfield in the Rostov region, a Russian Su-34 fighter bomber and an ammunition warehouse were destroyed. This is confirmed by satellite imagery, according to the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine.
2 more Russian aircraft of the same type were probably damaged by debris - craters from explosions were recorded near the sides.
"Russia's aviation weapons depot has been destroyed - large areas of scorched earth are visible on the territory of the airfield and around it from the secondary detonation of Russian ammunition," the statement says.
The Ukrainian intelligence says that 4 technical buildings and 2 hangars at the Morozovsk air base, located 265 kilometers from the front line, also suffered damage visible from space.
