Russian authorities said early Wednesday morning that drones targeted an airport in Pskov, a Russian city about 20 miles from NATO member Estonia’s border that’s over 400 miles from Ukraine.
Mikhail Vedernikov, governor of the Pskov Oblast, wrote on Telegram that the Russian Defense Ministry was “repelling” a drone attack on the Pskov airport. He also said there were no casualties in the attack, based on “preliminary information.”
According to Russia’s TASS news agency, emergency services said four Il-76 transport planes were damaged in the attack. “As a result of the drone attack, four Il-76 aircraft were damaged. A fire broke out, and two planes burst into flames,” TASS reported.
According to RT, the Russian Defense Ministry also reported drone attacks in the Bryansk Oblast, which borders Ukraine, and the Oryol Oblast, east of Bryansk.
Over the past month, Ukrainian drone attacks inside Russia have significantly escalated. On Sunday, The Washington Post reported that US officials expect the operations to increase even more.
While the US claims it does not “enable or encourage” Ukrainian attacks inside Russia, The Economist reported Sunday that the Ukrainian drone attacks use intelligence gathered by Kyiv’s Western backers.
So it goes. I wonder where I can get iodine?
Why would you want iodine ?
The luckiest ones will be those who will be instantly incinerated by the blasts.
It’ll be the first time in human existence that the living will envy the dead.
“On Sunday, The Washington Post reported that US officials expect the operations to increase even more.” BUT, we don’t “enable or encourage.” We just “EXPECT.” …What’s that? Why do we “EXPECT?” We just like, “expect” but for no reason that we know of, whatsoever. …It’s like we’re just guessing, …hoping, or …praying to Satan. (Sarcasm)
We just supply the weapons, the training, and the co-ordinates. What they do with them is strictly their decision; and entirely outside our purview.
“We just supply the weapons, the training, and the co-ordinates.” …And the money for their time and trouble. Otherwise, we are as innocent as Mother Teresa, only with more pronounced moral superiority. (Sarcasm)

Estonia is over 400 miles from Ukraine. wow is NATO stepping up their game here?
Right, because Drones cannot flight more than 30 miles and definitely cannot even reach Moscow.
On to nights news the people of Ukraine said if Zelenskiy didn`t target Russians , the Russians wouldn`t be targeting us , it seems the Ukrainians are realizing belatedly who the war mongers are and it ain`t Russia , so if elections are held could it be the end of the war because the people have had enough and are ready for peace .
