Yevgeny Prigozhin , The Boss of the Wagner mercenary group, said his forces had hit Russian aircraft which " were dropping bombs and launching rocket attacks" in a bid to stop their advance towards Moscow.

He voiced regret for having had to Shoot Down Russian Planes .

Wagner forces destroyed six Russian Helicopters and a plane during their short-lived rebellion on Saturday.

Some channels on Telegram, a messaging app popular with military bloggers, have made similar claims about losses.

What losses can be confirmed?

BBC Verify has looked at dozens of videos taken during the fighting between Wagner troops and Russian forces.

In addition, such helicopters conduct electronic Intelligence Gathering .

Pictures of more wreckage also, This Time said to show a KA-52 helicopter.

We've not been able to verify where This Was from, but part of the debris shows the figure 72, a code sign normally linked to the KA-52 helicopter.

This is one of the main aerial attack craft used by Russian forces.
