The strike occurred over the village of Kuteynikove in Russia's Rostov Oblast. The helicopter was hit by an FP-1 long-range drone, according to the military.

"This mission left the enemy with many questions, the answers to which only the Mi-8 crew members know, but they won't tell," the SSO stated.
