Ukrainian drones attack Kursk airfield - source

Military counterintelligence operatives with the SBU’s 13th Main Directorate set up a successful kamikaze drone attack on a Russian military airfield in Kursk overnight Sunday.

That’s according to an Ukrinform source in the SBU.

The source says the kamikaze drones "destroyed four Su-30s and a MiG-29 aircraft. Also among the targets hit were the radars of the S-300 complex and two Pantsirs."

Almost all SBU drones reached their targets, the source claimed.

As the SBU emphasized earlier, the Russians recorded at least 13 explosions in the area.

The exact consequences of the damage incurred and the casualty toll are yet to be verified, the Ukrainian security service added.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, loud explosions rang out in Kursk on the night of August 27. Residents of Kursk reported loud explosions over the city.
