Multiple sources, writing about multiple attacks, say these drones were launched from trucks near the air bases. This may be bullshit, although the footage shows the attack being carried out by quadcopters, which do have very short range, not long-range UAVs.

Ukrainian media reporting that *95* strategic bombers, and 20 other military aircraft, are being targeted. Some sources say 40 planes are confirmed destroyed.
This could be the largest strike on Russian forces since the beginning of the war.

🧵 When authoritarian leaders attack judges as "enemies," history shows us exactly where this leads. Trump's assault on "USA HATING JUDGES" isn't just inflammatory rhetoric—it's following a script written by strongmen worldwide. But other countries show us how to fight back.
