The Ukrainian military shot down another Russian Su-25 attack aircraft near Pokrovsk on May 22, the General Staff reported in its 10:00 p.m. update.
It's the fifth Russian Su-25 to be taken out in the last few days.
Since the beginning of the day, the number of Russian attacks in near Pokrovsk increased to 25, the General Staff said.
The Russians are trying to penetrate the battle formations of the Ukrainian defenders with assault groups and equipment.
The situation remains tense — at the time of publication of the summary, nine combat clashes continued.
"According to available information, Ukrainian soldiers destroyed a Russian Su-25 attack aircraft," the General Staff said.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
