On the night of October 10, an attack was carried out using strike drones on the Russian Khanskaya military air base, located in the Republic of Adygea. The incident involved explosions at the base, which were captured in videos published by the Astra Telegram channel. The footage shows flashes and sounds of explosions and the operation of Russian air defense systems. Local residents reported hearing jets, possibly Su-27 fighters and Su-34 bombers, taking off following the commencement of the attack, presumably to avoid being targeted by the drones.
