In a first for Ukraine during the invasion, Kyiv's air force commander and military spy agency said they had shot down a Russian Tu-22M3 strategic bomber that had fired missiles at Ukraine during the overnight attack.
The warplane, they said, had been flying in Russian airspace 300 km from the Ukrainian border.
An intelligence source told Reuters that Kyiv had used a modified S-200 air defence missile for the attack, but did not say where it had been fired from. The S-200 is a Soviet-era long-range surface-to-air missile system.

Watched some pretty destressing videos of this attack. I was married in Dnipro 3 years ago and remember this plaza quite well. A cool circualr tram rail system in the middle, cafes and restaurants on the side, the train station as the backdrop. Dnipro is such a cool city and I was pleasantly surprised how many people spoke English there. Much more than Kharkiv.
I know some people whine when we celebrate russian deaths, but considering the destruction and straight up murder that pilot put forth on civilians, #### that guy and rot it hell.
