Update (0933 EST): Russian military bloggers are blaming Russian General Teplinsky for ordering the glide bombing of the Ukrainian bridgehead by Su-34s even after a November 25th shoot down of another Su-34 carrying out that mission.
The bloggers claim that Teplinsky is “obsessed” with destroying the Ukrainian bridgehead and has “crossed a line”, sacrificing hundreds of soldiers, Marines, and now up to four Su-34s. According to their sources, the general disregarded warnings of Ukrainian shuffling of advanced air defenses to Kherson and ordered the flights anyways.
These bloggers may be referencing Colonel General Mikhail Teplinsky who is the embattled commander of Russian VDV forces in Ukraine.
At approximately 0600 EST, Ukrainian Air Force Commander Oleshchuk announced that his forces shot down three Russian Su-34 fighter-bombers in the Southern conflict zone at midday, local time. The bombers were downed above Kherson Oblast on their way to attack the Ukrainian bridgehead at Krynky.
Russian military bloggers immediately responded; fighter_bomber, a popular Russian military Telegram page posted that the circumstances were being investigated, but that the flight of Su-34s were most likely shot down by U.S.-supplied PATRIOT surface-to-air missile batteries.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces then posted the below photos showing search and rescue helicopters investigating the crash site where they found a parachute and flight gear of at least one of the Russian pilots.

He's an open and admitted troll.
And your mom didn't say a thing.
Some are hinting one of them was taken out by a Ukrainian F-16
Did you send your $6 bucks to Tucker yet? His new blog is already having problems.
Of the 6 flyers 4 were killed. SU-34 crew of 2.
One of the Su-34s supposedly shot down by F-16. Ukrainian pilots have been training on F-16s in the U.S. for more than a year. So this was probably a practice run as well as a warning to Patrushev.
More wins for the good guys.
Keep posting.
This is one of the reasons marcusmaximus is so obsessed and deranged when it comes to Tucker:

Tucker was a collaborator in The Steal, too. And he bragged that he voted for Kanye West in 2020 as a write-in instead of President Trump.
Cool. Post the link of him doing that.
“Some uppity foreigner in a T-shirt demanding money”
The conventional thinking is that once a bridgehead has been established, it must be destroyed before the enemy is able to create a defendable position. This thinking can lead to blindly throwing forces at a bridgehead and paying too high of a price.
Not sure this is the case, but if it is, it can end up being very costly.
The Su-34s were shot down in daylight, too.
Why would they do that?
It isn’t 2024 yet. Wake up and look at reports from today.
