KYIV (Reuters) -Ukraine’s special forces struck Russia’s Borisoglebsk military airfield in the Voronezh region on Saturday, hitting a glide bomb store and a trainer aircraft, the Ukrainian military said in a statement on social media.

The military said that other aircraft were also likely hit, without giving details.

“This airfield is the home base of enemy Su-34, Su-35S and Su-30SM aircraft,” the statement said.

The governor of Voronezh, Alexander Gusev, wrote on Telegram that more than 25 drones were destroyed over the region overnight. He said a power line was temporarily damaged, but made no mention of a military airfield.
