Combat drones destroyed near the Russian Khmeimim airbase

The Russian military airbase in Syria was again attacked.

Tonight, Russian air defense systems destroyed unknown airplanes that were sent from the Syrian city of Jebel a few kilometers from the Khmeimim airbase. According to preliminary data, we are talking about military unmanned aerial vehicles, which were supposed to attack the Russian military air base - all of them, and we are talking about three drones (the information is not confirmed - ed.), Were destroyed by the Pantsir missile system.

It has not yet been possible to find shot down unmanned aerial vehicles, but experts are quite worried about the increasing number of air attacks on the Russian military airbase "Khmeimim", in particular, at least six attacks have been launched since the beginning of this month, however, all of them were successfully repelled.

Specialists pay attention to the fact that each time Syrian militants change their location and attack the Russian military airbase from different sides, which makes it possible to select a place with the least protection.

Earlier it was reported that the unmanned aerial vehicles used by the militants had artisanal production, but being armed with artillery mines and 20 mm caliber, they represent a rather big danger for military equipment at the airbase "Khmeimim"
