It looks like a Russian airfield may have been hit.



​​​​​​​Morozovsk is an air base of the Russian Aerospace Forces as part of the 4th Air and Air Defence Forces Army, Southern Military District.

The base is home to the 559th Bomber Aviation Regiment which has three squadrons of Sukhoi Su-34(NATO: Fullback) as part of the 1st Guards Composite Aviation Division.[1][2]

The regiment arrived from Finsterwalde in Germany in 1993, still as the 559th Fighter-Bomber Aviation Regiment.[3]

The 559th was deployed to Primorsko-Akhtarsk (air base)as part of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[4]

On April 4th, 2024, the base was absolutely impregnated by Ukrainian drones.
