Zelenskyy Claims Second Russian Military Aircraft Destroyed in a Day Over Occupied Crimea

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has announced that Ukrainian forces have successfully taken down another Russian warplane, marking the second one within a 24-hour period. In his evening address on the 3rd of May, he praised our military for building up Ukraine's long-range capabilities, using coastal vessels to sink the Russian aircraft in an impressive demonstration of our capabilities.

Zelenskyy also acknowledged ongoing operations in Russia's Kursk and Belgorod oblasts, with a focus on countering Russian attacks along the entire front line.

The firstSu-30 fighter jet reportedly met its end near Novorossiysk in the Black Sea, thanks to a collaboration between Ukraine's Defence Intelligence, the Security Service, and other defence forces. They used unmanned surface vessels fitted with air-to-air missiles to carry out the precision strike.

While the exact details on how the second aircraft was downed are scarce, it forms part of a broader operation involving swarms of drones and missiles targeting Russian military targets across Crimea[5]. It's not been confirmed explicitly that the second aircraft was hit by a drone over occupied Crimea specifically, but Zelenskyy, along with other sources, do agree that a second Russian plane was indeed downed on the same day[4].

Background (optional):

The night of the 1st to the 2nd saw a coordinated drone attack on occupied Crimea, targeting various military sites, including airfields for tactical aircraft. This was followed by a report on the 3rd that a Russian Su-30 aircraft had been destroyed in the Black Sea by a Ukrainian unit on the 2nd May[3].

On the morning of the 3rd, Russian sources claimed they had intercepted 11 missiles and over 170 Ukrainian drones overnight, with an estimated 100 of them downed over temporarily occupied Crimea[6].

Enrichment Data:

According to reports, the first Su-30 was destroyed by a Magura V5 unmanned surface vessel using an R-73 infrared-guided missile[3]. The second aircraft's destruction was part of a broader operation involving hundreds of drones and missiles targeting Russian military infrastructure across occupied Crimea[5]. While some reports mention a strike on Saki air base in western Crimea[3], there is no direct confirmation that the second aircraft was hit by a drone over occupied Crimea specifically. However, President Zelenskyy and other sources confirm that a second Russian aircraft was indeed downed within 24 hours[4].

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy continues to oversee frequent searches for ways to strengthen Ukraine's defense against Russian aggression, as evident by the two Russian military aircraft destroyed in a day over the occupied Crimea.
In the realm of politics and general news, the ongoing war-and-conflicts between Ukraine and Russia have led to the use of unconventional tactics, such as the recent destruction of Russian aircraft over Crimea by swarms of drones and missiles.
The Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, has been actively involved in operations against Russian forces, not only in Crimea but also in the Kursk and Belgorod oblasts, with a focus on countering frequent Russian attacks.
Despite the lack of explicit confirmation, reports suggest that the second Russian aircraft was downed during the broader operation involving swarms of drones and missiles targeting Russian military infrastructure across occupied Crimea, an incident corroborated by President Zelenskyy and other sources.
