It was claimed that one of the helicopters, supposedly a Ka-52, was downed on territory recently liberated from Putin’s military.
The Ukrainian Air Force said in a press release: “Combat work was carried out on two more helicopters, so there is a high probability that the number of confirmed down helicopters will increase.”
The helicopters were said to be “providing fire support to ground occupation troops in the southern direction” when they were gunned down.
This comes as Russia’s intelligence agency the FSB reports it has “cracked down” on Ukrainian “terrorist” cells following the explosion on the Kerch Strait Bridge.
The FSB has accused Ukrainian military intelligence forces of planning the attack on the bridge last weekend.
