The mysterious Ukrainian fighter pilot hailed as the “Ghost of Kyiv” after reportedly shooting down dozens of Russian aircraft has been killed in battle, an outlet said Friday.
The death of the much-celebrated enigmatic pilot was reported by The Times of London, which for the first time also publicly identified Major Stepan Tarabalka, a 29-year-old father of one, as the war hero.
Tarabalka was credited with taking out as many as 40 Russian aircraft until he was himself shot down March 13 while battling an “overwhelming” number of enemy forces, the UK paper said.

Unbelievable. The propaganda never ends.
So they finally killed the fictional person who never existed in the first place?
🤡😆
His great-uncle was Lieutenant Kije.
How do you kill a ghost ? This seems like fake news
He is to be buried next to Carmen Sandiego…
Well, ask our Nazi Information Field Marshal Jancowitz…
India Today, 2/25/22: “Fact Check: Heartbreaking photo of injured child from Syrian war shared as victim of Russia-Ukraine conflict”
India Today, 3/1/22: “2005 photo from West Bank shared as Russian soldier holding Ukrainian girls at gunpoint”
“Ghost of Kyiv” footage turned out to be footage from the 2013 PC game, Digital Combat Simulator: World.
Numerous pictures of Zelensky wearing military garb on 2/24/22 are from him inspecting the border on 4/9/21. Is he still in Kyiv as we’ve been told? Ukrainian lawmaker Ilya Kiva said he fled to Poland.
India Today, 2/27/22: “Fact Check: Happy homecoming of US Marines shared as teary farewell of Ukrainian soldiers amidst the invasion”
India Today, 2/27/22: “Fact Check: This lady soldier with a rifle is neither the Ukraine’s First Lady nor Vice President’s wife”
India Today, 2/27/22: “Fact Check: Old image circulated as Ukrainian children sending-off army for war with Russia”
The media has told us so many lies like the Snake Island soldiers didn’t surrender (the New York Post, Sydney Morning Herald, etc confirmed they’re alive) only to find out they did surrender.
The pic of an old woman with a bloody face and bandaged head? It’s from Magnitogorsk, 2018.
The viral clip of Ukrainian men saying goodbye...Real? No, its from “The War of Chimeras” (2017).
The pic of an old woman with a bloody face and bandaged head supposedlyfrom a recent blast? It’s from the city of Magnitogorsk, 2018.
Women articles with children, saying there’s attacks all around, the end of the world is near, yet somehow they know exactly how many tanks have been blown up.
The “tank” that ran over the old man’s car was Ukrainian.
But the Polish/Ukrainian anti “disinformation” chief under Biden would no doubt say all of those things aren’t Ukrainian disinformation.
Why is it unbelievable?
You don’t think the Ukranian government is going to put out stuff to encourage their people?
What is it with you guys? You don’t seem to understand how war works.
Think of it this way: You know how Putin blusters about setting off nukes to make himself (and you guys) hard...its the same thing.
If you are going to keep acting like this, you will have to sit at the children’s table for the Victory Day parade party.
Casperov?
The war effort for Ukraine must be going worse than they’re letting on if they’re ‘admitting’ that their fictional propaganda character was KIA.
Yeah, let’s believe CNN, MSNBC, Reuters, WaPo, AP, NYT, NY Post etc, becahse Ukraine needs it to help their people!!!
With two missiles.
Whose though?
Wow. 40 kills in a modern air environment. Amazing. No US pilot has done that. Was the ghost flying a P-38? He might have gotten 42 then.
