Ukrainian Su-27 fighter jets have provided close air support to ground forces near Rodynske, striking Russian positions and disrupting enemy troop movements. The air operations were aimed at preventing Russian forces from regrouping and reinforcing their lines in the area. This represents a significant use of Ukrainian airpower in direct support of ground operations, which has become increasingly important as both sides seek tactical advantages along the front lines. The strikes demonstrate Ukraine's continued ability to employ its limited air assets effectively despite Russian air defense threats.
