Berezovka Air Base (also Umbozero South) is an air base in Murmansk Oblast, Russia located 13 km southwest of Umbozero. It contains few facilities and no buildings identifiable on satellite imagery, and was likely intended for use as a forward bomber staging base during the height of the Cold War.[1]
