DRONES WIPE OUT RUSSIAN SPY BASE

UKRAINE'S massive drone assault on an airfield in Russia wrecked a large spy base, it has emerged.

Satellite images show damage to the site, where Moscow's GRU special forces are housed.

The 20-strong drone attack, which the Mirror reported on Thursday, hit several €70million warplanes, with at least two of them being destroyed, it has also emerged.

The workhorse IL-76 craft can transport more than 100 heavily armed troops at a time.

It is a major blow to Russia's ability to bolster its front lines with reinforcements as Ukraine presses on with a breakthrough counter-offensive.
