FWIW as I’m getting comment questions, I’m yet to see any footage/photos/media of the reportedly downed IL-76’s over night last night. Footage of an AN-26 which was downed the other day is circulating claiming to be related but they are separate events.
I’m in the process of putting the big Red doubt on these reports now. Unless something credible imagery wise shows up.
It’s important to still give time as we’ve seen today for example, some footage of the downed Ukrainian AN-24 from the first day only appeared on social media today, not everything is instant, hence why “in the process” not concluded.
This is true and other factors need to be taken into consideration, it’s not known where it happened (if it did). Satellite imagery is obscured due to clouds so can’t be “easily found”. There are many factors. But an IL-76 is big.

In time we may or may not see media but for now it remains unverified (at least for me)
(Or maybe I’m being too objective 🤷)
