Ukrainian troops carried out a large-scale special operation "Web" on June 1, striking key Russian strategic military airfields. CNN, citing its reliable sources, reported that the Ukrainian military leadership regularly informed US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth about the operation. However, the White House administration was not informed in advance about the operation.
According to CNN sources, Pete Hegseth was at the Joint Base Andrews at the time of the operation and regularly received information about the incident. However, the Pentagon chief has not yet held a special discussion with his Ukrainian colleagues on this issue.
As a result of these large-scale attacks carried out by Ukraine on June 1, several strategically important military airfields of the Russian Federation were seriously damaged, including facilities in the Irkutsk and Murmansk regions. According to President Volodymyr Zelensky, a total of 117 special FPV drones and the same number of operators were involved in this unprecedented military operation.
Zelensky also said that the control headquarters of the operation is located on Russian territory, near the headquarters of the Federal Security Service (FSB). According to him, as a result of the attack, approximately 34 percent of the strategic aircraft of the Russian military aviation were damaged and put out of action.
The Russian Ministry of Defense also partially confirmed these facts. According to the official statement of the Russian military department, Ukrainian drones attacked military airfields located in five different regions of Russia. In the Murmansk and Irkutsk regions, according to the ministry, “several aircraft burned down.”
The American media is covering this event with great interest, discussing how this large-scale attack will affect relations between the United States and Russia. According to CNN experts, although this operation carried out by Kiev has caused significant strategic damage to Russia, it can create a difficult diplomatic situation for the United States and European countries.
According to experts, the successful implementation of Operation Web is not only a military victory for Ukraine, but also of great political and diplomatic importance. However, the fact that the White House was not informed in advance about this raises many questions in Washington.
At the same time, these events indicate that the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia has reached a new stage. According to international observers, the conflict may become even more acute in the near future.
At the same time, the world community is giving different assessments of this operation. While Western countries are watching this event with caution, Russia considers this attack a "terrorist act." In any case, Operation Web will definitely go down in history as one of the important turning points in the Ukrainian-Russian conflict. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
