Some of the debris fell around the town of Kostyantynivka. Debris also fell into the private sector — several private houses were damaged. There are no victims or victims of this incident, he said.
According to eyewitnesses, the plane was shot down by another Russian plane. The Russian authorities have not yet officially commented on this information.
How the occupiers themselves reacted to the downing of the Russian plane
Z-channels began to assure all their subscribers that the heavy Russian UAV Myslyvets was shot down in Kostyantynivka, and not the Su-25
All our planes and crews are at home. Alive, healthy and whole. Well, it happens that the drone cost less. That's what they're a test for, — wrote the Fighterbomber channel, but did not provide any strong evidence.
Another channel also claims that it's just a UAV, not a plane.
This is the S-70 hunter. Calm down already. Fuck him with this UAV. We will make a new one, writes the Voivode Movit channel.
What is important to understand is that Russia will never admit its losses as a result of "friendly fire".
