    Footage circulating widely on social media was said to show the latest Russian fighter being shot down.

    Footage reported to be showing Russian Su-34 shot down by Ukrainian forces near Dyakove, Luhansk region.

    In December, Ukraine orchestrated a similar success story, with Ukrainian forces eliminating three Russian Su-34 fighter/bombers over two days.

    Last month, Business Insider’s Sinéad Baker wrote that Russia was strategically trying to bait Ukraine into using up its Patriot stocks to leave itself vulnerable.

    The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) reported that Russia’s air superiority was key to capturing Avdiivka, the ‘gateway’ to Donetsk, launching hundreds of glide bombs in recent days to pummel Ukraine’s troops.

    Ukrainian Air Force Spokesperson Yuriy Ihnat said the only way Ukraine can combat glide bombs is by shooting down the Su-34 and Su-35 planes that them, reported the Kyiv Independent.
