2 Tu-160 strategic bombers have departed from Engels-2 Airbase, Saratov Oblast.

1 Tu-95MS departed from Diaghilev Airbase, Ryazan Oblast just under an hour ago. The purpose of the flight is unknown.

The 2 Tu-160s are circling in the area of the Engels, Saratov Oblast, waiting for the 5 Tu-95MS from Olenya Airbase. They should reach the launch lines in around 20 minutes.

The 5 Tu-95MS are around 250 km from the launch lines over the village of Uzmore, Saratov Oblast.

Several large groups of Geran-2 drones are flying very close to Kyiv. It's still unclear if they will attack the city or fly further west.

The bulk of the Gerans in Kyiv Oblast seem to be flying to the city of Bila Tserkva, southwest of Kyiv.

The map shows the drones skirting around Kyiv towards Obukhiv and then Bila Tserkva. Other large groups are flying to the city from the south.

1 Tu-95MS strategic bomber has departed from Engels-2 Airbase. Thus, we have:

5 Tu-95MS from Olenya
1 Tu-95MS from Diaghilev
1 Tu-95MS from Engels-2
2 Tu-160 from Engels-2
