Ukraine has said its air force had shot down a Sukhoi Su-34 fighter jet on the eastern front in the latest reported downing of a Russian aircraft by Kyiv.
Ukraine’s claim that it had destroyed the jet makes it the 10th downed Russian aircraft in 10 days, delivering a much-needed morale boost to Kyiv’s forces after their retreat from Avdiivka in the eastern Donetsk region on February 17.
