Russia says Ka-52M helicopter crews hit Ukrainian strongholds on Donetsk front

Helicopter crews operating Ka-52M helicopters as part of a strike group successfully targeted Ukrainian strongholds using unguided aviation rockets on the Donetsk front on January 23, the Russian Ministry of Defence said.

In support of ground forces, the army aviation pilots received coordinates from an aviation spotter, launching rockets that obliterated a command post and armoured vehicles of the Ukrainian Armed Forces during the execution of the combat mission, according to the Russian MoD.
