Record of Russian Aircraft Reduced to Ashes by Ukrainian Drones

Since the start of the war in Ukraine in February 2022, the Russian Air Force has effectively used its airbases close to the border to bomb the Eastern country and deliver troops, supplies, and vehicles to the frontlines. Nonetheless, during its latest summer counteroffensive, Ukraine sought to undermine the Russian war machine by attacking Russian bases from within Russia with the support of covert forces. Ukraine did this swiftly and with violence beginning in August 2023 with multiple attacks across different enemy bases. Footage taken from drones has shown the devastation left behind by Ukraine at the Kresty Air Base in Pskov, where at least four enemy Il-76 Candid transport aircraft were destroyed. Additional clips from the Ukrainian military show the drones specifically targeting the midpoint section of the Candids to render them completely inoperable. From large plumes of fire and clouds of smoke, the footage has given the world a taste of Ukraine's effort to cripple Russia's war logistics. --- Dark Footage showcases the most unbelievable photos and videos from history while telling the stories behind the camera.
