Drones attacked the airport at Pskov, near the Estonian and Latvian borders, home to a military transport aviation regiment. TASS, citing emergency services, said four Il-76 transport aircraft were damaged; the governor said there were no casualties. Russia's foreign ministry called the raids a terrorist act by Kyiv. Ukrainian authorities did not comment directly at the time; President Zelensky had said Russian airbases were legitimate targets. Drones were reported over five other Russian regions the same night.
