The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) has released a video of the Ka-52 attack and reconnaissance helicopters destroying the Western-made combat armored vehicles of Ukrainian troops in the Zaporozhye region.
Commenting on the footage that was posted on the MoD’s Telegram page, the ministry pointed out that “the Russian army’s aviation crews attacked a convoy of armored vehicles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with guided missiles.”
According to the MoD, after several such vehicles were obliterated, others tried to disperse but they were also destroyed by the Ka-52 crews.
The video comes after Colonel-General Alexander Romanchuk, the commander of the Russian Armed Forces group in the Zaporozhye region, said Ukrainian troops had lost up to 350 people and over 30 tanks, including three Western-made Leopard-2s, during an attempt to conduct a counteroffensive against Russian forces.
