A Russian helicopter is being downed in Ukraine.

Looks like most likely real footage, shot from a drone (the footage, not the Mi24). The missile doesn’t quite fly like a Stinger. My guess is that it’s a Piorun.
Those MANPADS, as the Russians found out in Afghanistan, are devastating to low-level aviation. Looks like they are about to find out all over again.
