The Security Service of Ukraine, SBU, conducted a major special operation targeting four Russian air bases across the country on June 1. The agency used first-person-view (FPV) drones smuggled deep inside Russia and hidden inside trucks.
They reportedly successfully hit 41 Russian heavy bombers. The operation β codenamed “Spiderweb” and a year-and-a-half in the planning β appears to have dealt a major blow to the aircraft Moscow uses to launch long-range missile attacks on Ukraine’s cities. We asked Ukrainians on the streets of Kyiv to share their reactions to the operation.
