Hs 123 on Russian Front

In July and August the Russian ace Koldunov shoots down 2 Hs123, the first on 28.7.43, the last on 23.8.43 in a combat near Dolgenkaya. Can anyone tell me if the Hs123 was still flying day time sorties at this time, and with what units? I assumed it would be relegated to night operations.

I am especially interested in the 23 August 1943 engagement when Koldunov claims two escorting fighters as well.

regards

Keith
