(MENAFN- UkrinForm) The SBU security service, together with the Special Operations Forces, attacked warehouses with guided aerial bombs and fuel were stored at the Marynivka airfield in Russia.
This was reported to Ukrinform by an informed source in the SBU.
According to the source, local Russians complain that after the SBU and SOF drone attacks, their military airfield looks like a scene from an apocalypse movie. The enemy has been actively using Marynivka in Volgograd region for bombing the frontline areas in Ukraine, the interlocutor said.

"The so-called special military operation is going 'according to plan' so much that the local residents listened all night and morning to how warehouses with glide bombs, ammunition and fuel explode. Plumes of black smoke are rising above the airfield and powerful detonations are being heard. The SBU works with surgical precision, targeting airfields from which the enemy attacks Ukraine. Each such strike reduces Russia's air superiority and significantly limits their aviation capabilities," said a source in the SBU.
