The SBU today struck a third of the Russian strategic aviation: damages amounting to 7 billion dollars
Ukraine conducted a unique special operation, striking nearly a third of the enemy's strategic aviation. Estimated losses for Russia today amount to 7 billion dollars.

This was reported by RBC-Ukraine citing the Security Service of Ukraine.

"7 billion dollars. This is the approximate cost of the enemy's strategic aviation, which was hit today as a result of the SBU's special operation "Spider web"," - the service reported.

According to the SBU, 34% of the strategic carriers of cruise missiles at the main bases of the Russian Federation were hit.

SBU drones attacked Russian airfields. As it turned out, the Security Service worked on this operation for a year and a half. The operation called "Spider web" was created to destroy bomber aircraft deep in enemy territory.

"The 'Office' of the Ukrainian special operation on the territory of Russia was deployed literally next to the regional FSB headquarters." President Volodymyr Zelensky stated: "Thanks to the Security Service, personally to General (Head of the SBU Vasyl, - ed.) Malyuk, and to everyone involved in the operation. The operation was prepared for more than a year and a half. Planning, organization, all details were perfectly prepared," - the president noted.

He noted that this special operation can confidently be called absolutely unique.
