The strategic bomber airbases attacked by Russian forces all store nuclear warheads. This attack behavior by Ukrainian forces is very dangerous, and now it depends on how the Russian forces will retaliate. It can be certain that this risky action by Ukrainian forces is intended to drag the United States completely into the conflict, although the negotiation delegations from both sides have arrived in Istanbul, the war will not end here.
Although attacking a base with nuclear weapons is equivalent to a nuclear strike, personally I don't think the Russian forces will retaliate with a mushroom cloud weapon, but bombing Ukrainian nuclear power plants is still possible. Not destroying the nuclear reactor, but bombing the generator units and cooling towers would paralyze these nuclear power plants.
