Video from Bakhmut allegedly shows a Ukrainian Soldier engaging and successfully shooting down a Russian Su-24 with a Stinger missile system from inside of a building.

From the footage alone, it's impossible to verify that the Ukrainian Soldier did actually shootdown an Su-24 with his Stinger missile system. These could be separate videos that are spliced together to make it look as if the aircraft was brought down by MANPADs and not another more advanced air defense system.
