Drones struck Russia's Engels-2 military airbase in Saratov Oblast overnight, according to independent monitoring channels, with local residents reporting the attack lasted through the night. ZTK-150 drones were likely involved, and OSINT analysts said the base's helipads were probably targeted, though aircraft reportedly continued operating from the facility afterward.
The base is a recurring target because it houses Russian strategic bombers used against Ukraine; this marks at least the third reported strike on the facility in recent months. Separately, drones also hit Moscow and Yaroslavl Oblast the same morning, with authorities citing 'falling debris' and fires.
