"Ukraine Downs Three Russian Warplanes"

Ukraine's military claimed to have shot down three more Russian Su-34 fighter-bombers, marking the latest successes against Moscow's air force. The Ukrainian army chief, Oleksandr Syrskyi, announced the downing of the warplanes in the Avdiivka and Mariupol sectors, following recent setbacks on the eastern battlefields. Since acquiring advanced Western air defense systems, Ukraine has posed a greater threat to Russian aviation near the front lines, with Kyiv accusing Moscow of targeting civilian areas and Ukraine's front lines using Su-34s.
