01.06.2025 โ‡ข The Day Ukraine Struck Forty Russian Bombers
โŒจUkraine executed what media described as its most sophisticated operation yet, launching drones from concealed trucks inside Russia to destroy over 40 strategic bombers across multiple airbases. Coverage evolved from initial claims of "Pearl Harbor-level" strikes to detailed accounts of coordinated swarms emerging from parked vehicles, targeting nuclear-capable aircraft worth $7 billion according to reports.

The operation overshadowed other international developments, including Russian bridge collapses that killed seven people and were attributed to sabotage. Gaza violence continued with Israeli strikes near aid centers reportedly killing 31 Palestinians.

Domestically, Channel crossings reached 2025's highest daily total with over 1,100 migrants, prompting headlines about lost border control. Paris experienced riots following PSG's Champions League victory, with two deaths and nearly 560 arrests reported.

The day concluded with an FBI investigation into what authorities called a targeted terror attack in Colorado, where multiple people were burned in firebombing incidents at pro-Israel events.
