Russian military transport plane crashed near Belgorod, Russia

Описание: A Russian military transport plane crashed near Belgorod, Russia, close to the Ukrainian border, as captured in a cellphone video. While Russian military authorities alleged that Ukraine shot down the aircraft, claiming the lives of 74 individuals, including 65 Ukrainian prisoners of war bound for a planned exchange, Ukrainian officials refrained from confirming these assertions. The exact number and identities of the victims remained unverified at the time. However, Ukrainian authorities did acknowledge the scheduled prisoner swap for the day, a routine practice amid the nearly two-year conflict. Despite a relative calm in the conflict's second winter, both sides have been accumulating ammunition and engaging in longer-range missile attacks. The front lines of the war have remained relatively stable for over a year, with total military casualties exceeding 500,000.
