Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said Russia had "responded" to Kyiv's audacious drone attack that destroyed Russian heavy bombers at airfields in Siberia last weekend by attacking civilians and civilian infrastructure in Ukraine. Russia's Ministry of Defence said its forces had carried out the strikes, which targeted military and military-related targets in response to what it called Ukrainian "terrorist acts" against Russia. Western military aviation experts told the Reuters news agency that Russia will take years to replace the nuclear-capable bomber planes that were hit in Ukrainian drone strikes on airfields in Siberia. Russia's National Guard said it killed a man as he tried to prepare a drone attack on a military site in Russia's Ryazan region, southeast of Moscow. Russian air defence units intercepted and destroyed 82 Ukrainian drones over Russian territory, including the Moscow region, Russia's Defence Ministry said early on Saturday.
