Reports continue to circulate regarding the status of Russian strategic aviation. A Telegram channel has provided a specific forecast, stating that no departures of Tu-95MS strategic bombers from Olenya Airbase are expected for at least the next 2.5 hours. However, the channel notes that other Russian long-range strike assets, including Tu-22M3 bombers, Iskander missiles, and Kalibr cruise missiles, could be used at any time from one hour onwards. This follows earlier reports of activity on Russian strategic bomber frequencies, which were later clarified to involve routine training. The situation highlights ongoing monitoring of Russia's strategic forces.
