Two Su-25 attack aircraft Russians hit in Zaporizhzhia Region

In the Zaporizhzhia Region, Ukrainian National Guardsmen have hit two Russian Su-25 attack aircraft.

The Command of the National Guard of Ukraine said that it was possible to target the aircraft with the help of portable anti-aircraft missile systems.

Now in the Zaporizhzhia direction, the enemy is actively using combat aviation.

On May 25, the invasion troops of the Russian Federation tried to defeat the positions of the Ukrainian Defense Forces using a pair of Su-25.

At that time, National Guardsmen with MANPADS were on combat duty.

The soldiers clearly identified the enemy aviation and accurately worked on air targets.

As a result of combat work, the first Su-25 attack aircraft was completely destroyed, its pilot managed to eject over the occupied territory.

The second aircraft was severely damaged and forced to crash-land.

Then at the end of the runway the residents of Melitopol observed a black column of smoke. Before that, the deaf explosions were heard.

The Russian media also confirmed the incident and reported that during the combat mission “Su-25 attack aircraft was hit by an anti-aircraft missile on the Zaporizhzhya front”.

Also, the mayor of Melitopol, Ivan Fedorov, published a photo with smoke that took place at the airfield.

Presumably, the second Russian attack aircraft suffered significant damage and will not be able to return to combat soon.
