On 25 August, a well-known Ukrainian pilot, Andriy Pilshchikov, with the call sign 'Juice', died in a crash. It was caused by a collision between L-39 combat trainer aircraft over the Zhytomyr region, and two other pilots died along with 'Juice'.
Pilshchikov was a pilot of a MiG-29 fighter jet. With the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion, he defended Ukraine's skies. He took part in the air defence of Kyiv.
