Authorities in Ust-Kut (Irkutsk region of the Russian Federation) have announced the search for 37-year-old Artem Timofeev, who may be involved in a massive drone attack on Russian military airfields.
This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to the Baza Telegram channel.
According to the publication, it was he who owned the cars from which the drones were actually flying.
"According to the sources, Timofeev was born in Zhytomyr (while the administration of Ust-Kut claims that he was born in Donetsk), then lived in Kyiv for some time. Several years ago, he moved to the Chelyabinsk region. Most of his relatives, as well as he himself, were registered in Miass (a city of regional subordination in Russia, Chelyabinsk region)."
According to Baza, Timofeev opened a freight transport business in October 2024. In December, he purchased several vehicles. It was with the help of these vehicles that the attacks on military targets were allegedly organised on 1 June. Sources claim that all departments of the Ministry of Internal Affairs have been targeted for Timofeev.
