Media reports claim the crash marks the country's military crossing the double-digit threshold in just eight months of conflict.

aggregating news about the war in Ukraine shared the claim that the Su-35 disaster marked a grim milestone for Russia, being the tenth non-combat aviation loss for the country since it began its invasion.

The crash of the Su-34 in Yeysk is at least the tenth non-combat loss in Russian aviation since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, - The Bell— ТРУХА⚡️English A number of the claims appeared to reference The Bell, an independent Russian news outlet, with a list of crashes with sources to when they occurred, and the type of plane that was involved in each crash, featured in some of the posts.

The Bell had indeed published a report concluding that the crash of the Su-34 warplane into the Yeysk apartment complex moved Russia's noncombat aircraft losses into double figures.The Bell's own accounting of noncombat aircraft losses in the war is robust, and is backed up with primary images as well as statements circulated by official Russian sources or confirmations by state-owned media outlets.

These include everything from an official acknowledgement from the Kremlin about the February 24 crash of an An-26 near the southwestern Russian city of Voronezh to video from the Russian news site Baza, showing an unidentified aircraft apparently rolling off the runway at a Crimean military base on October 1 and exploding.

The full list contains nine cases: The February 24 An-26 in Voronezh; April 8 MiG-31 near Saint-Petersburg; June 17 and 21 Su-25 in Belgorod and in Rostov; June 24 Il-76 in Ryazan; September 11 Su-34 in Crimea; October 1 unknown type of craft in Crimea; and October 9"double", a Su-24 and Su-34 near Rostov.
