Looks like the An-225 is seriously damaged, assuming the photo is legit. Not necessarily beyond repair/rebuild, probably a question of economic viability as to whether it ever flies again.

Both sides are blaming the other for the damage. I'd think the Ukrainians themselves are more likely responsible, would make sense to destroy it than let it fall intact to the Russians.

Wow this is horrible. There have been so many accidents at air shows. At least it sounds like no bystanders were injured.
