Russia’s top lawmaker accuses Kyiv of downing POW plane


The speaker of Russia’s lower house of parliament, Vyacheslav Volodin, on Wednesday accused Kyiv of shooting down a plane carrying 65 Ukrainian prisoners of war.

“They shot their own soldiers in the air. Their own,” Volodin told lawmakers in a plenary session. “Our pilots, who were carrying out a humanitarian mission, were shot down.”
