That doesn't look like airfield, looks like field set on fire.

This video contains swear words. I know it's in Russian and most people won't understand it, but some will.

Just what happens when you start a war or special military operation. Stuff gets broken, both sides.

The Ukrainians long range “Kamikaze” drone strikes can always be verified by the Russian civilians taking mobile phone videos driving along the roads. Every time something catches on fire at a Russia military facility the Russian civilians video tapes it as they drive pass. The Russian MOD tries to downplay the military damage by saying they shot down the Ukrainian drones, but the falling debris caused the fire. The Russian government stop long time ago saying the fire was caused by a careless Russian smoker.
