Reports indicate that Russian forces have lost communication with a Ka-52 attack helicopter. The claim, from a single source, provides no information on the helicopter's location, the circumstances of the lost contact, or the status of the crew.
A single-source report, published Thursday afternoon Jerusalem time, states that Russian forces have lost contact with a Ka-52 attack helicopter.

The Ka-52 is a tandem-seat attack helicopter used extensively by Russian forces in the Ukraine war. This is the first report of a lost Ka-52 contact on this desk. The claim remains unverified and unconfirmed by independent sources.
