Arson by Russians, not shelling by Ukrainians: ISW also does not believe in the Russian version of the tragedy in Olenivka

The version of the Russians is refuted by their own video materials.

The cause of the tragedy in Olenivska , where more than 50 Ukrainian prisoners of war died, is arson committed by the Russians, not shelling by Ukraine. This opinion was expressed by experts of the American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) in an August 3 review.

“Russian troops probably set fire to a prison complex where Ukrainian prisoners of war were held in the occupied Donetsk region, but accused Ukraine of an alleged high-precision strike with the use of military equipment provided by the West, which is likely to deter Western military support for Ukraine,” says the ISW review.
