Crimea airbase badly damaged, satellite images show - BBC News

Satellite images appear to show major damage and a number of destroyed Russian warplanes at a Crimea airbase following explosions there this week.

The Saky base in the west of Russian-ruled Crimea was rocked by a string of blasts on Tuesday, killing one person.

The base's runways appear intact, but at least eight aircraft seem damaged or destroyed with several craters visible.

Ukraine has not claimed responsibility - but this new evidence suggests the possibility of a targeted attack.

It also dispels Russia's denial that any of its aircraft were damaged.

The images, from the US-based Planet Labs, show large areas of scorched earth left from fires that erupted.
