“Smoke trail....It is very likely that is all there is to see.”
No matter who is responsible...and to me it looks like several dropped the ball which could have prevented this from happening....it’s a really difficult time for the families.
The FIRST question I asked when I heard of this today was, “WHAT THE HELL is a commercial aircraft doing flying directly over an active war zone???!!!”
I know the answer, of course.
To ADMIT that it is an active war zone means to admit that Ukraine is in the middle of a CIVIL WAR, which they have avoided doing to the point of being comedic, at this point.
