Ukraine’s air force chiefs say they have shot down three Russian bomber aircraft over the south of the country, in what would be a blow to Vladimir Putin.

“Today, in the southern direction - minus three Russian Su-34 fighter bombers!,” the air force wrote on social media.

Su-34 aircraft, which are armed with guided bombs and Kh-59 missiles, can carry out long-distance attacks.

Speaking in his nightly address, the Ukrainian president cited a report by HUR, the country’s military intelligence agency.

It comes as the Dutch government announced today it is preparing to give 18 F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine, in a boost for the embattled nation that is growing increasingly anxious about aid from its Western allies.
