Russia's heavy losses: Ukraine special operation against Putin's military bases just hot air?. As of: April 7, 2024, 5:04 a.m By: Victoria Krumbeck CommentsPressSplit Several Russian aircraft are said to have been destroyed after Ukrainian drone attacks.

However, there is no evidence that the coup against Russia was successful. If Ukraine continues to strike Russian air bases, it would severely impact Russia's ability to conduct missile and air strikes across Ukraine. There are currently doubts that F-16 fighter jets are a “miracle weapon” against Putin.
