What are you even listening to? This report starts off with the passive sentence construction "was shot down" in order to not mention who shot it down, and then proceeds to report on everything the Ukrainian military has done--total implication that the Ukrainian military shot their own plane down. It's disgraceful lies from the inventors of modern day propaganda, the Russia gov. Where talking 49 dead here and imminent war in Europe because Putin wants "New Russia", you realize that, don't you?
