Three Russian serviceman were killed by debris from a destroyed UAV, the Defense Ministry says
Ukraine targeted the Engels airfield in Russia’s Saratov Region with a drone early on Monday, the Russian Defense Ministry said.
The UAV, approaching the base at a low altitude, was shot down by the air defenses, but three servicemen suffered fatal wounds from the falling debris, the ministry said.
None of the aircraft stationed at the airfield were damaged in the incident, it added.
The Engels base, which hosts Russian long-range bombers, was targeted in a similar drone strike in early December.
