On June 7 local time, a noticeable news came from Ukraine. The Ukrainian Air Force reported that during an operation in the direction of Kursk that morning, it successfully shot down a Russian Su-35 fighter jet and released the scene of the crash. This incident instantly aroused high attention from the international community about the situation in Russia and Ukraine, and heated up the already tense situation again.
The specific content of the Ukrainian Air Force's announcement shows that the operation took place on the direction of Kursk on the morning of June 7. The emergence of this notice undoubtedly left an important piece on the chessboard of the Russian-Ukrainian military conflict. However, it is doubtful that the Ukrainian Air Force has not disclosed more details about the shooting down of the fighter, and Russia has no relevant response so far. This makes the entire incident full of mystery, and all parties are waiting for more information to restore the entire picture of the incident.
In addition to this incident, Russia and Ukraine's military operations in other aspects have not stopped. According to the Russian News Agency, the Russian army has achieved remarkable results in its operations against Kharkov, Ukraine, not only killing and injuring hundreds of Ukrainian military personnel, but also successfully attacked Ukrainian communications and logistics systems. Communications and logistics systems are like the "nerves" and "bloodlines" of the army. This strike by the Russian army undoubtedly had a significant impact on the Ukrainian army's combat capabilities.
At the same time, both sides have also made many actions in drone interception. The Russian air defense system played a role and intercepted a certain number of Ukrainian drones, while the Ukrainian army was not showing weakness and intercepted some of the Russian drones and missiles. Drones play an increasingly important role in modern warfare, and can conduct reconnaissance, surveillance, and even carry weapons to attack. The two sides' back and forth between drones intercepting reflects each other's fierce competition in intelligence collection and countermeasures.
The Ukraine said that the shooting down of Russia-Soviet-35 fighter jets may have potential escalating impact on the air combat situation in Russia-Ukraine. The Su-35, as Russia's advanced fighter jet, is likely to stimulate Russia to adopt a tougher air combat strategy. As for Ukraine, this "achievement" may make it more proactive in air combat. Based on the recent series of military operations between the two sides, the future trend of the situation in Russia and Ukraine is full of variables. Every military action of both sides is like the wings of a butterfly, which may trigger a series of chain reactions, causing the situation to develop in a more complex direction. The international community is also paying close attention and looking forward to the two sides resolving disputes through peaceful negotiations and achieving regional peace and stability as soon as possible.
