Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense posted a video Thursday that appears to show a destroyed Russian helicopter being pulled out of the water.

“A new variety of fish can now be caught in Kyiv Reservoir,” it said in a tweet. “Russian helicopter Mi-28N ‘Night Hunter’ has become prey itself.”

The Ministry said Ukraine’s military shot down the aircraft “during the defense of Kyiv at the beginning of the war.”
