The pilot ejected safely and was rescued from the sea 200 meters from shore. In addition, the incident did not result in civilian damage, the Russian official said. He did not specify the type of military plane or the causes of the incident.
Earlier, Russian Telegram pages shared pages showing the crash of an Su-35 fighter jet near Sevastopol, stating that the incident occurred on Thursday afternoon.
According to the Crimean Wind Telegram channel, picked up by the Ukrainian publication The Kyiv Independent, the plane was accidentally shot down by Russian anti-aircraft after taking off from the Belbek military airfield.
The French publication La Voix Du Nord also evokes an incident caused by an “overzeal” of the Russians in the context of the increase in Ukrainian attacks on the Crimean peninsula.
