A Russian military aircraft has been blown up by anti-war activists in Belarus in what has been described as the most successful act of sabotage since President Putin invaded Ukraine.
The Beriev A-50 surveillance aircraft was targeted with drones operated by members of the Belarusian resistance, according to Bypol, an opposition movement. The attack took place at the Machulishchy air base near Minsk, the capital.
