Ukrainian forces have carried out a series of aerial operations against Russian positions, highlighting the ongoing conflict's intensity. A notable operation involved Ukraine landing troops in the Belgorod direction using a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter, which entered at low altitude to evade radar detection. This maneuver suggests that the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) conducted the operation under full surveillance by Russia. Additionally, Ukrainian GUR UH-60A Black Hawks were reported conducting an air assault into Russia's Belgorod Oblast. In another development, Ukrainian Army Aviation operated a Mi-24VP Hind-E gunship at low levels behind the front lines. Meanwhile, Russian forces retaliated with a Ka-52 Alligator attack helicopter launching S-8 unguided missiles near Kharkov to counter a Ukrainian sabotage and recon group. In a significant escalation, Ukraine successfully shot down a Russian Ka-27 helicopter over Crimea, marking a critical loss for Russia as these helicopters, valued at approximately $14 million, have played a crucial role in targeting Ukrainian naval drones and landing crafts.
