A significant loss for Ukraine: An F-16 crashes, killing the well-known pilot Oleksiy Mes during a major air strike.

The incident, first reported by the Wall Street Journal, came just weeks after the long-awaited arrival of the first aircraft in the war-torn country.

The deceased pilot was Oleksiy Mes, also known by the nickname 'Moonfish', who died while attempting to repel the largest air strike ever launched by Russia against Ukraine.

The crash represents a major setback for Ukraine, as the first F-16 aircraft only arrived in Ukraine earlier this month and 'Moonfish' was one of the few trained pilots.
