Footage reportedly from June 16, 2022 shows a Russian Mi-35M attack helicopter being shot down by a Ukrainian MANPADS in Donetsk.
The operation was carried out by the Ukrainian 231st Territorial Defense Force (TDF) using an Igla shoulder fired anti air missile. Aerial aftermath photos confirmed the Russian helicopter type and location.
The photos from a crash site proves that it was in fact a Russian Mi-35M attack helicopter. But new details differ- it is claimed it was shot with a Igla MANPADS by the 231st Battalion of TDF in Donetsk, not Kherson Oblast. We will look into more details about the shootdown site. pic.twitter.com/GxS1iUcUg7
