Almost 100 aerial bombs have "unauthorizedly descended" from the planes of the army of the aggressor country russia since the beginning of 2025. Most of them fell on the occupied territories of Ukraine.
The russian publication ASTRA reported this on Monday, June 23.
According to the publication, the last case of an "unauthorized descent" of an air bomb occurred over the occupied part of the Donetsk Region.
The russian plane was carrying a 500-kilogram FAB-500 bomb, but it fell on the settlement of Nova Olenivka in the Dokuchaievsk district.
The ammunition fell on Pivnichna Street, damaging four residential buildings. There were no deaths or injuries.

And on June 11, a 500-kilogram bomb "unauthorizedly descended" on the village of Dolgii Kolodez in the Kursk Oblast of the russian federation. It fell in the garden of one of the local residents, but exploded.
According to ASTRA, since the beginning of the year, the russian army's aviation has dropped 94 aerial bombs on the occupied territories of Ukraine and russian regions.
In 2024, there were at least 165 such cases.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, in early June it became known that the russians began using modified aerial bombs that are capable of flying 10-15 kilometers further.
Recall that in September 2024, the American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) stated that the russians had completed testing aerial bombs weighing 3,000 kilograms.
