Yurii Ihnat, spokesman for Ukraine�s Air Force, has reported that the Russians had reduced the number of air strikes after losing three of their Su-34 strike fighters in Ukraine’s south.
Official Ukrainian claims always take a while, they don’t want to give Russians real-time intel and they don’t make exceptions for “well the Russians probably know already”, too much organisational overhead everything is held back a couple of days.
Ukraine has been pretty eager to share any successes in this conflict, even perceived successes (e.g. the landing operation on Crimea). Images from that were released almost immediately.
