A Russian Su-34 military aircraft crashed in the mountainous region of North Ossetia, killing the crew, the Russian Defense Ministry reported on June 11.
The plane was conducting a scheduled training flight, according to the defense ministry. The ministry claimed preliminary data indicates the crash was caused by a technical malfunction.
The Russian Telegram channel Mash reported that residents heard an explosion near the village of Gorny Dzuarikau in North Ossetia at night.
The Russian Su-34 is a Soviet-era medium-range fighter-bomber. The Ukrainian military reported shooting down multiple Su-34 jets in the spring of 2024.
The Russian domestic airline industry has seen a significant uptick in accidents and emergency landings since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of war and subsequent imposition of Western sanctions.
“A Russian Su-34 military aircraft crashed in the mountainous region of North Ossetia, killing the crew…”
The really good news is that the crew is also wasted.
North Ossetia is in the Caucasus, for those who are wondering.
One of many desirable outcomes of putler’s horror is that the entire south Caucuses region should be entirely and irrevocably free from all russian traces.
Right!
“The plane was conducting a scheduled training flight, according to the defense ministry. ”
I’m glad to see the training went well.
Very realistic training indeed! 😈
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
