This is the latest shooting down of a Russian fighter jet. Previously, the Armed Forces of Ukraine announced the shooting down of a Russian Su-25 attack aircraft near Pokrovsk.

At that time, the Russians, though through their war bloggers, confirmed the death of the crew.
In total, during the invasion of Ukraine, the Russian army lost at least 33 Su-25 attack aircraft, according to calculations by the OSINT project "Oryx," which documents equipment losses on both sides of the conflict based on visual evidence.
