New satellite images obtained by The War Zone show that at least two Il-76 Candid heavy cargo aircraft were destroyed and two others damaged in a drone attack on Kresty Air Base in Pskov Oblast during the overnight hours of Aug. 29. We also obtained a infrared camera image that shows one of the aircraft the moment it was attacked.

The post-attack images from Planet Labs show the charred remains of two Candids and two that appear to display damage to the top of their fuselages at the midpoint of the aircraft where the wings are attached.

Love to see it. The further back Russia has to base their aircraft/logistics hubs, the harder and more expensive it is to supply those on the front.
