A helicopter accident in the Kharkiv area was reported by Ukrainian military unit Operational Command 'East,' according to Ukrinform. Officer Yaroslav reported that the enemy's helicopters flew low at night. They flew close over our heads, preventing us from even raising our brows. Anti-aircraft gunners fired two missiles at them. While one struck a heat trap, the other brought down a Ka-53. When it came down to the ground... The Russian Ka-52 was struck with a regular 'Igla,' since it was a waste of a 'Stinger.'" 'Igla', a portable SAM system built by the Soviet Union, was employed by the military force, according to the report. The post joked about wasting a $120,000 ‘Stinger'. Drone photographs of the accident scene were also included in the report, since they were unable to approach the location because of hostile positions.
