  1. Russia either got paranoid thinking Storm Shadow was coming to get them or Ukraine just moved an air defense launcher closer to the border and started taking down planes over Russia before they could send missiles into Ukrainian apartment buildings and civilians.

    1. The easiest way to become a jet pilot in Russia is to own an apartment and claim the military wreckage for yourself

    2. Ukraine has the right to strike inside Russia. This is a war not a war where the victim can’t strike back

  2. They weren’t shot down , they were part of a special firework operation.

  3. How do we know that those planes weren’t used to intercept those missiles by colliding with them?

    1. Yes absolutely, that’s how mad Vlad’s Air force appears to work. Either that, or the pilot carelessly discarded a cigarette,

  4. What do you call a russian tank battalion returning to russia? An infantry squad.

  5. “The aircraft ran into some trouble.” Quality line from the Ukrainians, who I suspect have much more trouble up their sleeves.

    1. @Sergey Bebenin The 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the UKrainian SS (1st Galician)

      The creation of a Ukrainian SS division was perceived by many in Ukraine as a step towards the attainment of Ukrainian independence and attracted many volunteers.The division enjoyed support from multiple political and religious groups within the western Ukrainian community.On 17 March 1945, Ukrainian émigrés established the Ukrainian National Committee to represent the interests of Ukrainians to the Third Reich.Due to Vatican intervention, the British authorities changed the status of the division members from POW to surrendered enemy personnel.

      Former soldiers of SS “Galizien” were allowed to immigrate to Canada and the United Kingdom in 1947.The names of about 8,000 men from the division who were admitted to the UK have been stored in the so-called “Rimini List”.

      Despite several requests of various lobby groups, the details of the list have never been publicly released,The 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS (1st Galician) is today honored by many Ukrainian nationalists.Since 2010 every year on 28 April a march is held to celebrate the foundation of the division. In addition streets were named after the division in Ivano-Frankivsk (Ukrains`koi Dyvizii Street) and Ternopil (Soldiers Division “Galicia” Street)..

  6. The funny thing is that Russian Jets are often seen on the ground while Russian tank turrets are seen in the sky. 😂

    1. Lmao OK that is hilarious 😂. Finally someone else with a sense of humor. Thought I was a endangered species 😂😂😂😂

    1. Smfh…of course you try and just post a positive reinforcement type of comment and the offspring of sibling parents take it as a sign to spew personal political rhetoric that has absolutely nothing to do with the original comment…

  7. Love that shoot down on those aircrafts Ukraine heroes. Keep it up .Keep them guessing same way

    1. They can gladly have my tax dollars. Better than wasting it on screwball Republican revenge “Investigations”.

    1. @Patrick C …were the last words of some ruzzian invader now pushing up sunflowers somewhere in Ukraine 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻

  8. this is overwhelming seeing the confusion between Wagner on Russian army😂….glory to ukraine 🇺🇦

  9. I was wondering if CNN had any plans for hosting a town hall with Putin or whether they only do that for his representatives.

  10. To paraphrase SpaceX..The Russian Air Force has been experiencing a lot of rapid unscheduled disassembly’s (as indeed has mad Vlads army and Navy)

    1. If it was friendly fire the most likely cause was was someone didn’t update their IFF transponders.
      There are several ways that could have happened ,none of them are good for the Russian military
