> Ukraine did down multiple Russian fighter jets. Well, the ukranians say they did. It's a weird war where both sides are using the same equipment, so when a plane gets downed or a tank gets blown up on video, it's still unclear whose plane or tank it was. I expect both sides just market whatever videos and photos they have as the other side's casualties. One example that has been disturbing me was the video of that truck that was attacked by what looked like Ukranian civilians, who shot the driver and the occupants. Except, it turned out to be an Ukranian truck. So was it russian special forces in an Ukranian truck (seems a bit unlikely to me) or was it just a case of friendly fire? It seems clear that friendly fire has been happening, since all the more recent photographs of Ukranian soldiers have prominent (and quickly applied) yellow or blue tape on their uniforms and helmets. |

The ukrainian twitter account that posted it outright says that it was the army executing alleged chechen soldiers ("dealing with them"). But that story does not even make sense since they are not in an army vehicule, and there is no way to confirm those were soldiers or russians. The only thing we know is who is shooting but not who is getting shot at. Weird video and weird for that account to gloat about a supposed war crime
