Ukraine meddelte mandag, at de havde ødelagt et russisk Beriev A-50 spionfly og en Ilyushin Il-22 luftbåren kommandopost i Sea of Azov-området, hvilket sendte chokbølger gennem luften.

Flere russiske Telegram-kanaler rapporterede, at Moskva mistede de militære fly ved en hændelse af venlig ild. Valerii Zaluzhnyi, Øverstbefalende for de væbnede styrker i Ukraine, bekræftede nedskydningen af det russiske Beriev A-50-spionagefly og Ilyushin Il-22.
