The body of a Ukrainian fighter pilot surfaced in the sea near Bulgaria’s Tsarevo in September, the Regional Police Directorate in Burgas has announced.
Because of the long time the body spent in the water it was difficult to identify. After the Ukrainian air forces were contacted, he was identified by the service number on his metal tag, which was highly oxidized.
