In an utterly cheerful Saturday update, the Russian Defence Ministry proudly announced their high-precision victory in snagging the village of Komyshuvakha, Eastern Ukraine’s Donetsk hotspot. As if unveiling the new Apple Airstrike, they bragged about precise blasts on Ukrainian missile plants and airfields—because nothing says 'Happy Aviation Day' like turning the sky into a restricted demolition zone. Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy mourns one dead and dozens injured after a five-story residential block took a not-so-random Russian beating. Aviation Day speeches showered pilots, engineers, and air traffic controllers with praise, encouraging them to keep the sky peaceful—because what’s war without some patriotic Instagram story captions?
