乌克兰声称其空军周五击落了一架俄罗斯战略轰炸机；然而，莫斯科官员表示，这架飞机因故障在人口稀少的地区坠毁。 Ukraine claims its air force shot down a Russian strategic bomber on Friday; however, Moscow officials say the plane crashed in a sparsely populated area due to a malfunction. 这两个说法都无法得到独立验证。 Neither claim can be independently verified. 此前乌克兰声称在持续的冲突中击落了俄罗斯战机，但莫斯科通常对此保持沉默或予以否认。 Previous Ukrainian claims of downing Russian warplanes during their ongoing conflict have typically been met with silence or denials from Moscow. 与此同时，当地官员称，俄罗斯导弹袭击了乌克兰中部第聂伯罗地区的城市，造成 8 人死亡，25 人受伤。 Meanwhile, Russian missiles targeted cities in Ukraine's central Dnipro region, killing eight people and injuring 25, local officials said.
