Looks like four -and possibly a fifth- strategic bombers are burning at Belaya Air Base in Irkutsk region.
🇺🇦 Ukraine’s Security Service reportedly spent over 18 months preparing Operation “Pavutýna” ("Spiderweb"), which targeted 41 Russian strategic aircraft today.
According to Ihor Lachenkov referring to sources within the SBU, FPV drones were first smuggled into Russia, followed by mobile wooden cabins. Hidden inside the cabins mounted on trucks, the drones were launched remotely when the time came. All operatives involved in the operation have been returned to Ukraine.

It is claimed that another airfield in the Moscow region was targeted—either Voskresensk Severka Airfield or Aviatsentr "Voskresensk".
Both are small local airstrips or training centers and, as far as known, do not host any significant Russian military aviation.
Needs further confirmation.

A truck carrying drones exploded, reportedly in Russia's Amur region. It is unclear whether the explosion occurred before or after the drones were launched.
More details about the SBU operation today:
According to Ukrainian sources, 41 strategic and military transport aircraft were targetted across four Russian airbases. Some drones executed autonomous target guidance, with damage assessments ongoing through satellite imagery.
An SBU agent group smuggled 150 small attack drones and 300 munitions into Russia. Of these, 116 drones were launched, controlled via Russian telecom networks employing autonomous guidance. Multiple mobile drone launch sites were established near Russian strategic aviation bases.
The drones struck at close range in broad daylight deep inside Russian territory. Despite substantial air defense—SAM systems, electronic warfare, and patrols armed with firearms—Russian forces expected night strikes from large drones, not small daytime quadcopters.
The attack on the Tu-95 strategic bomber base at Olenya was especially effective, with drones precisely targeting fuel tanks and destroying numerous aircraft completely.
