Ex-Ukrainian DJ and Erotic Novelist Wife Linked to 'Russian Pearl Harbor' Attack Destroying Doomsday Aircraft

Jun 03 2025

Authorities in Russia have initiated an extensive search for Artem Timofeev, a 37-year-old former DJ, and his wife, Ekaterina “Katya” Timofeeva, a 34-year-old erotic novelist, following their alleged involvement in a significant military operation against Russian air bases.

The operation, referred to as “Operation Spider Web,” resulted in substantial damage to the Kremlin’s air fleet, including nuclear-capable bombers. Explosives-laden drones were reportedly concealed within trucks that were driven onto various air bases, leading to the destruction of numerous aircraft.

Timofeev is believed to own the trucking company implicated in the operation. Russian media outlets have reported that he is now wanted for his connection to what has been described as a terrorist attack in the Irkutsk region. “Four lorries were registered in his name, and one of them was the source of the drones that launched [in an attack on a Russian air base],” stated a report from a Russian online news source.

His wife, who has authored a book titled “I Became Bad While You Loved Me,” has not been active on social media for two weeks and has reportedly deleted her accounts. The couple was last seen at their apartment in Chelyabinsk about a week ago.

Originally from Ukraine, the couple moved to Russia at an unspecified time. Timofeev established his trucking business in December of the previous year. Before relocating, he was known for co-owning a clothing brand and working as a DJ in Kyiv.

Reports suggest that the couple may have fled following the recent attacks. The Ukrainian secret service executed the strikes by ingeniously hiding drones within the roofs of sheds loaded onto trucks. Once at the air bases, a remotely activated device allowed the drones to launch, resulting in a coordinated assault that caught Russian forces off guard.

Ukrainian officials claim that approximately 34% of Russia’s Tu-95 bomber fleet was destroyed during these raids across five air bases. In total, 41 Russian warplanes were reportedly affected, leading to an estimated $7 billion in damages.

The implications of this operation are significant, raising questions about security and operational readiness within the Russian military.
