Russian stuff blowing up: Ukrainian drones said to attack Moscow airport

Ukraine is reported to have sent drones to attack the Chkalovsky Air Base outside of Moscow, which is home to IL-80s among other aircraft. There are no reports I can find on damage.

Ukraine continues to operate in the Kursk Oblast, although it is still difficult to say how far they have gone due to an info blackout from Kyiv. Some videos from the front are being posted, however.

... when it comes time to end this horrific fiasco attributable to Putin.

Look at the damages and deaths he brought to Ukraine for absolutely nothing, no reason, nothing gained by Russia for this illegal military adventure to puff up Putin's sick ego.

tryung ti sgiit diwb Yjraubuab dribes with their AKs. Sometimes they get lucky. Mostly, they don't. The deep booms far in the distance and no explosions in the sky say they didn't get lucky that time, either.
