At Engels airfield — craters after the strike by the Ukrainian Armed Forces
Satellite images from the American aerospace company Maxar on March 21 show damage to ammunition depots at the Engels airfield in the Saratov region.

This is reported by "Schemes".
The airfield is known for the fact that Russian strategic aviation planes have repeatedly taken off from it, launching large-scale missile strikes on Ukraine.
It was in these warehouses that containers for Kh-101/Kh-555 missiles, which Russia uses to attack Ukraine from Tu-160 and Tu-95 aircraft, were located. It is also likely that a missile pre-flight training center was located there, which was also destroyed, aviation expert Anatoly Khrapchinsky told Schema.
