UAVs were launched from there across Ukraine.

Monitoring groups report that drones operated by the Ukrainian Defense Forces carried out a massive strike on a Russian UAV launch site in the Oryol Region. A series of fires was recorded at the impact sites.

According to preliminary data, one of the Russian occupiers’ largest drone ports near the village of “Tsimbulova” in the Oryol region was targeted. This was reported by the monitoring group Falcon Insight.

“The ‘Tsimbulova’ UAV launch base was subjected to a massive attack. NASA FIRMS satellite monitoring has detected several fire hotspots since 1:33 a.m. in the storage, preparation, and launch area,” the report states.

At the specified coordinates (53°22'01.06"N 35°49'12.57"E), the NASA FIRMS service has detected a number of large fires in the area near the drone port. As of 6:45 a.m., approximately 10 (!) fire outbreaks have been recorded in the area around “Tsimbulova.”

As a reminder, the Russian Armed Forces’ drone port near the village of “Tsimbulova” is one of the largest launch sites for attack and jet UAVs. At this time, no further details regarding the scale or consequences have been reported.

As a reminder, yesterday Ukrainian drones attacked the Russian cities of Volgograd and Samara.
