That looks like a shoot down with the fire and flat spin. Guess the other option is if an engine exploded which don't normally happen like that but yeah, Russian AD getting trigger happy again would be my guess.
Edit: Also don't see chutes anywhere.

so in addition to the Ukraine aid bill, there is a Sanctions bill that includes the REPO act, which can use seized Russian assets to support Ukraine. This is fantastic. HR 8036
Here is the actual bill

TERF-driven culture war bullshit, former chief executive of the SNP - and husband to its former leader - charged with embezzlement, Tory MP suspended after it transpired he faked being held hostage to steal money from donors, a drummed up controversy over the deputy leader of Labour and whether or not she was properly taxed over the sale of a house, Scotland dropping its climate change targets, continual fighting over a plan to deport/divert asylum seekers to Rwanda, and half of NHS staff are estimated to be suffering burnout and seeking new jobs
That's just this week
But, this isn't the UK Political thread, or the Cass Review thread, so not gonna risk going down a tangent. Overall, while the British nation and people remain supportive of Ukraine, its general position in headlines has waned, so things like the foreign secretary seeking to try and drum up more support at the G7 gets to be comparatively quiet, especially as versus the other Johnson continuing to be the biggest nuisance in the US House of Representatives
If Ukraine shot down that strategic bomber it's the most "surprise motherfucker" thing that's happened in a while especially since they are lacking AD right now.
Ukraine most likely is in "Only fire on very high priority and/or high value air targets" mode.

If Ukraine can replicate it just one more time and destroy a second bomber, it might give Russia much more pause on deploying sorties, at least as frequently as they have been. Those bombers are their main weapons against... anyone. The US.

That aspect should be discussed more. As this turns into a long war, assassination is a possible outcome. Putin would clearly love to have Zelensky killed ASAP. I wonder if Ukrainian forces have studied the question about a Putin assassination though.
I mean they've probably talked about it between comrades, but it'd be fucking mental for them to actually formulate any plans for that.
A lot, but primarily (for the majority of voters at least) it's issues with the cost of living and a consistently weak economy over the almost 15 years the current government has been in power. Austerity, Brexit, and trickle down economic policies blowing up and leading to the shortest prime minister role in our country's history, have led to widespread resentment that the current prime minister can't escape from. And he's tried everything to escape from it, from publicity trips to Ukraine (which didn't help his polls), to right wing hate campaigns (which didn't help his polls), to tax cuts (which didn't help his polls).
So it's not that the UK is losing interest in Ukraine. Support for Ukraine is incredibly strong across the political spectrum. It's just that you don't hear much about it in big bombastic press releases these days because the prime minister is desperate to find something that will boost his poll results, and Ukraine press releases never did much for him. UK aid is still strong to Ukraine, but just not being shouted about right now. We've got an election coming up this year so the government is scrambling to find something that will land with the voters (they currently track as the least popular their party has ever been since poll tracking began).
Can we finally get this over the line?

G7, and therefore Japan, is also working on strengthening Ukraines air defence, for what it is worth.

Probably no new Patriot system components from the Netherlands for Ukraine.
Beside those €150m the Netherlands will purchase short-range air defense equipment for €60m to strengthen Ukraine.

planes Should be on the tarmac to deliver to Poland if they haven't already moved assets to Poland
1) Over how many days was this?
2) Lots of yellow dots in the town. Did the UAF defenders have to retreat, or are they still holding the area?
Russia is a terrorist state.

Deepstate shows more than half that town in Russian control, LiveUA still shows majority of town in Ukrainian control (this website is shit now with popups)
Probably Russia is gaining ground very slowly, since it's what is happening in a lot of fronts. It's a lot of equipment lost, but they have been doing this for about 2 years non-stop

Senate to stay in session to pass House’s Ukraine, Israel package
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) warned Senate colleagues Friday they should be prepared to stay in session through the weekend to finish work on a long-stalled package to fund the war…
thehill.com
A good sign, hopefully the Senate will be able to vote on it on Sunday
While the US potentially finally passing the aid bill tomorrow is good news, where will that and the other Czech driven artillery supplies leave Ukraine? Everything I've been hearing from the Ukrainians make it seem very dire at the moment.

The House took a critical step on Friday toward approving a long-stalled package of aid to Ukraine, Israel and other American allies, as Democrats supplied the crucial votes to push the legislation past Republican opposition so that it could be considered on the floor.
The 316-to-94 vote cleared the way for the House to bring up the aid package, teeing up separate votes on Saturday on each of its parts. But passage of those measures, each attracting bipartisan support from different coalitions, was not in doubt, making Friday's action the key indicator that the legislation is all but certain to prevail.
Should that happen in votes set for Saturday afternoon, the Senate was expected to quickly pass the measure, and President Biden has said he would sign it into law.
On Friday, the rule for considering the bill — historically a straight party-line vote — passed with more Democratic than Republican support, but it also won a majority of G.O.P. votes, making it clear that despite a pocket of deep resistance from the far right, there is broad bipartisan backing for the $95.3 billion package.
The vote was an enormous victory in the long effort to fund Ukraine as it battles Russian aggression, a major priority of President Biden. It was a triumph against the forces of isolationism within the G.O.P. and a major moment of consensus in a Congress that for the past year has been mostly defined by its dysfunction.
But it came only after Speaker Mike Johnson put his job on the line by turning to Democrats in a significant breach of custom in the House, further imperiling his position even as he paved the way for the legislation to be voted on and approved.
On the House floor, Democrats held back their votes until it was clear there was not enough Republican support for the measure to pass without their backing, and then their "yes" votes began pouring in. Ultimately, 165 Democrats voted for the measure, more than the 151 Republicans who supported it.
"Democrats, once again, will be the adults in the room, and I'm so glad Republicans finally realize the gravity of the situation and the urgency with which we must act," said Representative Jim McGovern of Massachusetts, the top Democrat on the Rules Committee. "But you don't get an award around here for doing your damn job."
Mr. McGovern blamed a "MAGA minority that doesn't want to compromise" for the long delay on approving aid to Ukraine. But he said that Democrats were providing the votes because "so much more is at stake here than petty partisanship."
It was the second time during this Congress that Republicans have had to rely on Democratic votes in the House to even bring to the floor legislation to address a critical issue. They did so last year to allow for a vote to suspend the debt ceiling bill and avoid a catastrophic federal default. On that vote, 29 Republicans voted to oppose the rule. On Friday, 55 Republicans voted against their own speaker's agenda.
After the vote, Representative Paul Gosar of Arizona became the third Republican to say he would support a bid to oust Mr. Johnson from his post. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, Republican of Georgia, has already filed a resolution calling for Mr. Johnson's removal but has not yet sought a vote on it.
Representative Hakeem Jeffries, Democrat of New York and the minority leader, said Mr. Johnson had not directly asked him for Democratic votes to pass the rule on Friday, but it was obvious that the measure was going to require substantial backing from his ranks to pass. He added that a majority of Democrats would also support the elements of the aid package on Saturday.

It looks like 4 trucks destroyed together. They could be all launchers or two launchers and two radars. I think it's four launchers though.
