Quote from Fedorov: "The occupiers in Melitopol are clearly jealous of Chornobaivka [a village in Kherson Oblast, where the Russian army lost a lot of soldiers – ed.], so they smoke and smoke at the airfield. Just now [at 14:50 – ed.] a powerful explosion has been recorded there. We hope that the Russians have been eliminated, as well as their equipment. We are waiting for good news from the Armed Forces of Ukraine."
Details: Fedorov has not clarified the details, but posted a corresponding video.
