Looking at previous pictures, this Su-34 is the one mentionned as being shot down on March 5h : "A two-seat Su-34, registration number RF-81879 - Red 24, is shot down by Ukrainian forces near Chernihiv at 11:30. Both pilots ejected. Ukrainian forces captured the pilot; the co-pilot died." ...

In this French TV document, North ok Kiev, the wreck of an Ukrainian downed Mig-29 (said to have been shot down around one month ago) : at about 00:00:45'' https://www.francetvinfo.fr/monde/europe/manifestations-en-ukraine/guerre-en-ukraine-apres-les-combats-des-milliers-d-engins-non-exploses-resten...

Indeed, very likely.
But source ?

I find it difficult to search for an up to date list of aircraft and helicopters losses in this war. For example, this one seems to be quite passive for a while : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_aircraft_losses_during_the_Russo-Ukrainian_War (I doubt that Russia sustained no losses for 12 days...
