The enemy continues to attack the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces with controlled aerial bombs, but no longer dares to fly close, Nikolai Oleshchuk said.
The Ukrainian military engaged enemy aircraft at a distance of more than 150 kilometers. The results of the combat work are now being evaluated, the commander of the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Nikolai Oleshchuk said on Telegram on Friday, March 8.
“Every day, the crew of the anti-aircraft missile forces of the Air Force hunt down Russian fighters. Just yesterday there was a combat use against enemy aircraft at a distance of more than 150 km. We are still working today ! We are evaluating the results of combat work,” he wrote.
Oleshchuk added that the enemy continued to attack the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces with controlled air bombs, but did not dare to fly close.
In addition, the latest losses of Russian aviation forced the Russians to reduce the number of airstrikes on CABs. Their capabilities in conducting radar reconnaissance are reduced.
“According to our data, some “discussions” have already begun with Russian pilots about the decisions of the military leadership – to send them in a way. Such conversations, and, perhaps, sabotage during the implementation of the activities of the invaders, will only grow when the Air Force receives from Western partners more tools to protect our airspace from enemy air attacks,” added Oleschuk.
We remind you that in recent weeks the Russians have lost at least 15 aircraft. President Vladimir Zelensky said it was “the right dynamics of losses.”
And according to the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Russia has lost 347 aircraft and 325 helicopters since the start of the full-scale invasion.
