These images purport to show a Russian Ka-52M helicopter crew commander called Dmitry saying that he hit Ukrainian position and infantry, with the footage cutting to a Russian helicopter firing rockets.
The video then cuts to a number of explosions, reportedly the Ukrainian positions being hit.
The images were obtained from the Russian Ministry of Defence (MoD) on Tuesday, 21st May, along with a statement claiming (in English): “Crew commander of the Ka-52M reconnaissance strike helicopter told about strikes at the enemy’s strongholds and manpower.” (sic)
