After some period when nothing significant weren't happening, today Ukraine made huge drone attack on multiple Russian airbases, destroying huge number bombers. Ukraine issaying that over 40 bombers were destroyed, maybe there is a bit less, but probably nobody won't tell us how many were destroyed exactly.
Potentially it's about 30% of what they had. It's very significant. You can build new missiles or tanks, but not bombers, especially such number.
Interesting thing that drones arrived not from Ukraine. Attack was made inside territory of Russia, drones emerged from cargo trucks parked near to these airbases:

Ukranian capabilities in that sense have been growing month after month. Relatively low tech in action in this context where Ruzzia, where otherwise being a large country is to their advantage, fails because it makes it also difficult to defend.
Interestly, Ukraine is focusing on military targets instead of trying to answer with general terror attacks when Ruzzia is provoking. However, there is also a full programme of single targetting those generals that order civilian strikes or seem to have commited wartimes. Let's call that... sanctioning individuals.
Oh, for those who doubt...
