On February 27, the Ukrainian Defense Forces destroyed another Russian Su-34 fighter bomber in the Eastern direction.
Rubryka writes about this, referring to the Telegram of the commander of the Air Force of Ukraine's armed forces, Lieutenant General Mykola Oleschuk.
"Approximately at 2 p.m., they [Ukrainian soldiers – ed.] worked on another Su-34. The direction is the same! The goal is the same!
With such losses in combat and special aviation, the Russians should think, at least for some time, about stopping "airborne meat assaults".
Well, let's keep working… To victory!" he wrote in the message.
It should be noted that on the morning of February 27, it became known about the downing of a Russian Su-34 fighter-bomber in the Eastern direction.
The Air Force also mentioned that the Russian pilots were able to maneuver away from Ukrainian missiles yesterday, but this will not always be the case.
"That's why I advise the occupiers to see their relatives before every flight, just in case. Because who knows, they will be lucky or not this time," the military emphasized.
