Juice's Death: Famous Ukrainian fighter pilot 'Juice' dies in tragic mid-air crash I Oneindia News
The Ukrainian Air Force has said that three Ukrainian pilots, including a well-known pilot who went by the call sign “Juice,” have died in a plane crash.
The incident occurred on Friday, August 25, about 140 kilometers west of Kyiv.
The crews of two L-39 combat trainer aircraft collided in the sky while performing a combat mission, according to the Air Force.
The Air Force expressed condolences to the families of the deceased, saying that “this is a painful and irreparable loss for all of us.” Reports say that the crash was “most likely” related to formation flying.
The standard distance between planes during dogfight exercises is 50-70 metres but sometimes planes flew practically on top of each other at a distance of just 3-4 metres.
The recent missile attack on Ukrainian energy infrastructure represents a significant escalation in tensions, with devastating consequences for civilians and critical facilities alike. According to local authorities, Russian forces unleashed a "massive" aerial assault utilising 76 air attack weapons, including 55 missiles and 21 drones, originating from both Russian territory and areas under Russian control. Ukrainian Air Force Commander Mykola Oleshchuk (MEE-koh-lah Oh-LESH-chook) reported the destruction of at least 59 of these weapons in response.

Russian forces carried out an overnight drone attack on Ukraine's Kharkiv and Dnipro regions, causing injuries to at least six individuals and causing damage to critical infrastructure, as well as commercial and residential buildings, according to regional officials on Saturday. The Ukrainian Air Force reported that Russian forces deployed 13 Shahed drones targeting these regions in the northeast and centre of the country. The air defence units successfully intercepted and downed all the drones, as confirmed by the air force commander. However, debris from the downed drones struck civilian targets in Kharkiv, resulting in injuries to four people and igniting a fire in an office building, as stated by the regional governor.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has sharply criticised Western countries for imposing restrictions on the use of donated arms, accusing them of being "afraid" of both a Russian and Ukrainian defeat. In a candid interview with AFP on Friday, Zelensky expressed his frustration over the conditions placed on the use of long-range weapons supplied to Kiev. “They can fire any weapons from their territory at ours. This is the biggest advantage that Russia has. We can’t do anything to their systems, which are located on the territory of Russia, with Western weapons,” Zelensky stated in the interview aired on Saturday. This restriction significantly hampers Ukraine's ability to retaliate against Russian forces effectively.

Escalating tensions between Ukraine and Russia intensify the demand for air defense systems. Kyiv seeks US Patriot systems, but Washington's support falls short.

Germany and Spain offer support, but the scarcity of these systems remains a concern.
