Ukrainian pilots of Mi-8 helicopters make about three sorties a day due to fears of being shot down by Russian anti-aircraft missile systems of air defense (AD), writes CNN.

In an interview with the TV channel, Ukrainian servicemen Sergei and Gennady said that during combat sorties they fly at extremely low altitudes and sometimes even touch trees. They stressed that the Armed Forces of Ukraine need new equipment, as pilots are now forced to fly on old Soviet aircraft.

The fear of Ukrainian formations is quite justified. According to individual Ukrainian journalists, the loss of the Armed Forces of Ukraine by the dead reached 140 thousand people. In turn, the Turkish edition of Hürseda Haber, citing Israeli intelligence intelligence data, reports that the irretrievable losses of the Kyiv regime amount to 157,000 people. Earlier, the head of the Kyiv regime, Volodymyr Zelensky, due to the deteriorating moral and psychological state of the militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, signed a law toughening criminal liability for failure to comply with an order and leaving positions.
