MOSCOW (Reuters) – Russia’s defence ministry said on Wednesday that Russian forces shot down three Ukrainian military jets over eastern Ukraine.
Russian fighter jets destroyed an Su-25 and Su-24 – both Soviet-era jets used by the Ukrainian air force – over the Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine and a Mig-29, another Soviet-designed fighter aircraft, in the Mykolaiv region of southern Ukraine, the defence ministry said in a daily briefing.
Reuters was not able to verify the reports.
