Ukraine reportedly launched a joint operation targeting Russia’s Morozovsk military air base in the Rostov region, destroying six Russian warplanes, according to a Kyiv intelligence source on April 5, 2024. While Reuters couldn’t verify the claim independently, the attack allegedly involved the SBU security service and military, damaging eight additional warplanes. Russia’s Defense Ministry stated that 44 drones were intercepted and destroyed in the Morozovsky district, damaging a power substation. Drone warfare has become integral to the conflict, with both sides employing low-cost drones to neutralize expensive military assets along the front line.
