The Ukrainian military destroyed two Ka-52 helicopters, one near Zaporizhia and another in the Kyiv region.

According to Ukrinform, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces said this in a statement released on Facebook.

"Our defenders in the Zaporizhia direction reported the destruction of a Ka-52 helicopter and damage to another similar aircraft. About 60 Russian occupiers and several armored vehicles of the enemy were also eliminated. Another Ka-52 'super alligator' was shot down in the Kyiv region," the statement said.

On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the beginning of a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Under the pretext of "denazification" and "demilitarization" of Ukraine, Russian troops have been shelling and destroying infrastructure, residential areas of Ukrainian cities and villages using artillery, multiple launch rocket systems and ballistic missiles.
