The video from the ground shows that it’s destroyed 
This is the other one - I have no idea if it survived or not.
Why is this in 3rd party addon discussion?
Because the OP expressed a desire for an add-on AN-225 for the sim.
There’s a portover on Flightsim.to of the FSX AN-225, with all of the baggage that portovers have.
Was flying around Kyiv to see what the Ukraine looks like and there were a couple of them flying around in multiplayer. (Along with a bunch of Cy-57s, F-15s and F/A-18s…)

@kingdmac3365 and I are having a go at adding the Antonov AN 225 as a native mod.
Very early version available without any working cockpit or landing gear.
Download links for it along with the Ghost of Kyiv Mig 29 at https://flightsimsquadron.com/2022/03/05/antonov-an-225-and-ghost-of-kyiv/

If it ever gets developed to the point where it’s worth releasing there, sure

#JoergNeumann said, that they want to build it in the SIM and use to earned money helping to rebuild a new #AN225. What a great idea! The An225 will be a great success.

Rebuilding will be a big job, this is a video by Dmytro Antonov examining the wreck and discussing what can be salvaged … jump to 18:24 for the AN-225 inspection …

Latest reports seem to suggest the best hope is a rebuild based on the second airframe that was also at a bombed facility but luckily not damaged.
There are issues though, not the least of which being that much of the old Soviet era tech used in the original is unavailable, meaning extensive upgrading and a re-certification is likely necessary.

Isn’t there DLC of this plane? Only on Pc though
There might be an imported FSX one kicking about.
MS have promised to make it a “Local Legend” with proceeds going to a Ukraine aid fund.

If I were Ukraine and the An225 were still more or less intact, I certainly wouldn’t advertise it to the world - and I wouldn’t let Russia know.
