Russia’s Investigative Committee releases video which it alleges shows Ukrainian POWs loaded onto crashed military plane

Russia’s Investigative Committee has released a video which it alleges shows Ukrainian POWs being loaded onto the Il-76 military transport aircraft that subsequently crashed in Russia’s Belgorod region.

There are two parts to the video, which lasts just over a minute. The footage appears to have been recorded by a security camera at a military airfield, reports Mediazona.

In the first part of the video, a convoy of vehicles approaches the plane. The second part provides a closer view of the aircraft, showing vehicles and people moving around it. Due to the quality of the footage, it is difficult to determine exactly what is happening in the frame or whether people are actually transferring from the vehicles to the aircraft.

The video also lacks any information that could establish the precise time of the recording. The Investigative Committee’s press service has not provided any additional details about the published video.
