## Ukraine-Russia war latest: Ukraine shoots down two more Russian fighter-bombers

Authored by telegraph.co.uk

Ukraine has claimed it shot down two more Russian fighter-bombers on Thursday, its latest reported success against Russia’s air force.

Writing on the Telegram messaging app, Oleksandr Syrskyi, Ukraine’s army chief, said: “After successful combat operations against an enemy aircraft in the night on Feb 29, two more Russian aircraft were destroyed: Su-34 fighter-bombers in the Avdiivka and Mariupol sectors.”.

Avdiivka in eastern Ukraine fell to Russian forces this month after a long battle.

Russia took full control of the southeastern port city of Mariupol in May 2022.

Russia did not immediately comment on Syrskyi’s remarks, which have also yet to be verified by The Telegraph.

If confirmed, it would mark Ukraine’s’ latest victory over Russia’s air force, after it claimed to have downed two Russian spy planes recently. »

Not all administration officials support the idea of sending a tranche of aid to Ukraine as a stopgap move, however.

Other officials are wary of the idea because it could put the U.S. military’s stockpiles below levels that are considered necessary for sufficient readiness.

But the Pentagon does not have enough approved funding available to replace the weapons and equipment after the U.S. sends it. »
