A mysterious Ukrainian pilot who has shot down up to ten Russian jets had been thought to be a myth.

But now the general staff of the Ukrainian armed forces have released an image of the so-called Ghost of Kyiv, alongside his threat: 'Hello occupier, I'm coming for your soul!'. 

The image simply shows a figure in the cockpit of an MiG-29 fighter jet, with his face hidden behind a black visor and oxygen mask.

The Ghost is fast becoming a symbol of resistance against the massive, but stalled, invasion. 

Ukraine has claimed it has shot down multiple Russian aircraft during the conflict.

 Putin had almost 1,200 combat aircraft before hostilities began, while Ukraine had just 124.
