Ukraine attacks the military airfield and base of the Russian Northern Fleet in the Arctic Circle

At two airports in the Murmansk region, the Carpet plan was again introduced, previously, due to the threat of a drone attack. This was reported by the telegram channel "Base".

According to him, restrictions were imposed on almost the entire Kola Peninsula (including Murmansk and Apatity). Flights for departure and arrival have been delayed.

According to the Shot telegram channel, up to three unidentified objects have been spotted in the sky over the Murmansk region today, most likely enemy UAVs that are heading towards the Olenya airfield. They arrived in the region from the Arkhangelsk region. They were spotted in the area of the village of High.

TK reminds that two of the three drones destroyed the day before also arrived in the region from the Arkhangelsk region. All of them were shot down.

"Two Ukrainian drones were shot down in the Murmansk region near Olenegorsk," Shot reported.

"The Carpet plan was introduced at two airports in the Murmansk region — Murmashi and Khibiny. There is a high activity of reconnaissance aircraft in the region from Finland, Sweden and Norway. The C295 aircraft of the Norwegian Air Force (N31) and the Gulfstream 5 of the Italian Air Force (IAM1495, MM62293) were spotted on the flight map," the Mash telegram channel notes.

Mash adds that "two drones were shot down seven kilometers from the Olenya airfield in Olenegorsk, Murmansk region".

As reported, Ukraine is attacking this region for the second day in a row. Yesterday, restrictions were also imposed on the operation of local airports due to drones. According to the Mash telegram channel, drones were spotted at the Olenya military airfield, where Tu-95MS and Tu-22M3 strategic missile carriers are stationed.

According to TC "Baza", three unknown drones were found yesterday in the Severomorsk area, where the main base of the Northern Fleet of the Russian Federation is located.

EADaily reminds that another drone attack on the Murmansk region took place on August 21.

The "Carpet" plan in aviation is a closed sky mode. It means the requirement of immediate landing or withdrawal from the zone of operation of such a regime of all airborne aircraft. The "Carpet" plan is introduced when illegally crossing the state border of the Russian Federation by air, when using weapons or military equipment against an offending aircraft, as well as when an unidentified flying object and other material objects appear in the sky.
