The tales of this so-called 'war hero' started a few days after the war and aired for a long time. This story was also strongly supported by official Ukrainian social media accounts. However, the truth of the 'Ghost of Kyiv' came to the fore on Saturday after Ukrainian officials admitted that the 'great pilot' was a myth.

But he was not the 'Ghost of Kyiv', the Air Force said in its statement on Saturday.
