On August 28, Ukrainian forces revealed a video of shooting down a Russian Su-25 attack aircraft in the Kramatorsk direction, Ukraine.

This was reported on the Telegram channels of the Khortytsia Operational-Strategic Group of Troops and the 28th Separate Mechanized Brigade, named after the Knights of the Winter Campaign.

The aircraft was downed by the 28th Brigade’s anti-aircraft unit as it attempted to strike Ukrainian positions.

“Starting today, there’s one less Russian attack aircraft in the sky,” as stated on the “Khortytsia” Telegram channel.

Previously, as a result of Ukraine’s Main Intelligence Directorate attack on the Russian military airfield Savasleika on August 16, significant damage was inflicted upon multiple Russian warplanes, including MIG-31K/I aircraft, two Il-76 transport aircraft, and damaged approximately five other aircraft, likely also MIG-31K/I models.
