A video has appeared online of the destruction of a Su-25 Grach military attack aircraft by Russian invaders near Avdiivka. It became the fifth enemy aircraft shot down in the last ten days at the front.

The published video captured the moment the Russian plane was hit in the sky and fell. Ukrainian soldiers shot down an enemy Su-25 using Stinger MANPADS.

The day before, Colonel Vladyslav Nazarov, speaker of the “South” operational command, reported that Ukrainian defenders shot down a Russian Su-25 in the Tavria direction.

Commander of the Tavria operational-strategic group of troops Oleksandr Tarnavsky later said that in the Tavria direction over the past ten days, the Defense Force soldiers shot down five Grach attack aircraft.
