I know little about strategy of modern warfare--but this looks like a GRAND hit by Ukraine!!

BREAKING: Ukraine Just Pulled Off One of the Most Daring Strikes in Modern Warfare

In what can only be described as a stunning act of covert military ingenuity, Ukraine has reportedly struck 41 Russian bombers across four separate air bases, some located as far as 4,400 kilometers from Ukraine's borders.

According to reports, Ukraine secretly transported wooden mobile cabins into Russia, disguising FPV drones beneath their roofs. These cabins were mounted on trucks and parked in position, hidden in plain sight.

When the signal was given, the roofs remotely swung open like something out of a sci-fi film. And then?

Dozens of drones launched straight from the trucks, flying directly into the heart of Russia’s strategic air power, obliterating bombers that the Kremlin can’t even produce anymore due to sanctions and critical shortages.

The implications are staggering. This kind of operation, conducted this deep inside enemy territory, using mobile disguised platforms, has never been done before. Not at this scale. Not with this level of impact.

Russia just lost a significant chunk of its long-range bomber fleet. And unlike missiles, bombers aren’t quickly replaceable.
