It is expected that during the retreat, Russian troops threw equipment at the airfield in Chernobayivka. During the de-occupation of the Kherson region, the Armed Forces of Ukraine Strofeyl helicopter at the Mi-8 helicopter, stolen by Russian troops in March. The blogger Special Kherson Cat posted on Twitter a video shot by the Ukrainian military. Judging from the roller, the helicopter was discovered by fighters of the 1st battalion of the 28th Mechanized Brigade of the Armed Forces.

The author suggested that earlier the MI-8 belonged to the Ukrainian army, but the Russians repainted it, inflicting, in addition to camouflage, the letters "Z". "We have returned him to our own harbor," the serviceman said. The Russian Telegram-Channel "Returned at the Z War" assures that the Ukrainian military received a helicopter in the village of Chernobayivka, where the military airfield is located.

It is allegedly the same Mi-8 that the Russians captured at the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine and have repeatedly shown in their media. The blogger was indignant that the command of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation did not manage to burn the equipment so that it did not get to the Ukrainians. He also fears that the Armed Forces will be able to quickly repair the helicopter and use it to attack the invaders.

On November 11, it became known that the Armed Forces released the village of Chornobayivka in Kherson region. A video appeared on the network how the locals met defenders with Ukrainian flags under the national anthem. This settlement was famous for its airfield, on which the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation constantly placed their equipment, and the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces were destroyed by the Armed Forces.
