a further remarkable incident is that in today's message Putin confirmed the death of russian pilots, meaning that the footage of the crashed aircraft was likely real. It is not clear how many aircraft was shot down.
More Russian aircraft was lost against Wagner in 1 day than in 1 month against Ukraine lol.
"Wagner forces may have shot down up to three Mi-8 MTPR electronic warfare helicopters, one Mi-8 helicopter, one Ka-52 helicopter, one Mi-35 helicopter, one Mi-28 helicopter, and one An-26/Il-28 transport aircraft, resulting in the deaths of at least 13 pilots and airmen - and one of the single deadliest days for the Russian air force of the war in Ukraine to date.[11]"
