Ukraine’s Main Directorate of Intelligence (HUR) has claimed the destruction of a Russian Ka-32 multirole helicopter at the Ostafyevo airfield outside the city of Moscow.
The agency posted a video to its official Telegram channel on Friday of what appeared to be an arson attack on a helicopter.
“The destroyed unit of aviation equipment was used by the aggressor state in the interests of the Moscow aviation center, in particular—to support the operations of the Russian army of occupation,” the post read.
The video showed a fire set inside the cabin of the helicopter, though the extent of the damage is unclear. The HUR said the aircraft “was burned.”
This is a breaking news story and will be updated shortly.
