SSO of Ukraine gave details about the attack (Operation DRAGONFLY) on Berdyansk and Luhansk. A total of 9 helicopters of different modifications, special equipment, air defense launchers, runways and an ammunition warehouse were either damaged or destroyed.

Based on Sentinel Hub satelite images of Berdyansk airport taken on 15-10-2023, it looks like a minimum of 20 helicopters could have been present. Assuming they haven't moved since that date.

If we overlay FIRMS data, a significant part of them are within the area's of fire. We will have to wait for better satelite images to be able to confirm the damage.
