Ukraine’s Drone Blitz Destroys Over 40 Russian Aircraft in Major Escalation

In a bold escalation of its defense strategy, Ukraine launched what officials are calling “Operation Spider’s Web” a coordinated drone attack on several Russian military bases that resulted in the destruction ofover 40 Russian aircraft and critical infrastructure.

The overnight offensive, confirmed by the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, targeted airfields in Belgorod, Kursk, and Voronezh. It’s being hailed as one of Ukraine’s most effective aerial strikes since the conflict began in 2022.

“This marks a turning point,” said General Dmytro Ivanenko. “Our precision drone capabilities have grown tremendously, and we will continue to defend our nation by taking the war to Russia’s doorstep.”

The Kremlin has condemned the attack, calling it “reckless” and warning of “severe retaliatory consequences.” Russian state media reported power outages in several affected regions and confirmed “casualties and material damage,” though specifics remain unclear.

International analysts are calling the move a game-changer. With NATO-supplied drone systems becoming more advanced, Ukraine’s reach has expanded far beyond defensive operations. Experts warn this escalation could provoke a more aggressive Russian response in coming days.
