    The Russia-Ukraine war escalated further as Russian forces claimed to have shot down a Ukrainian F-16 fighter jet, marking a significant blow to Ukraine and its Western allies. The F-16, a multi-role fighter supplied by the United States, was reportedly destroyed by Russia’s S-300 air defense system using just two missiles. In an interview with Rossiya 1 TV, a Russian commander stated that the operation required extensive preparation, with the first missile damaging the aircraft and the second ensuring its complete destruction. “The enemy claimed this fighter jet could not be shot down, but in reality, they fall out of the sky like any other aircraft,” he said.

    F-16 Loss Follows Missile Strike

    Ukraine began receiving F-16 jets in August 2024. To date, Kyiv has received 44 of the 87 F-16 aircraft promised by European countries. Russia confirmed that this is the fourth F-16 lost in combat since deliveries began. This incident follows Russia’s recent use of the Oreshnik hypersonic missile in retaliation to a Ukrainian drone attack on President Vladimir Putin’s residence. The intermediate-range missile, capable of speeds ten times that of sound, can carry nuclear warheads, though no such warheads were reported in this attack.

    The Russian Defense Ministry said the assault targeted critical infrastructure and included long-range drones and land and sea-based weaponry. The incident underscores the growing intensity of the conflict and raises questions about the effectiveness of air defenses and Western military aid in the ongoing war.
