Putin's regime is accused of 'covering-up' death toll of '25 military scientists killed in fire at Russian weapons research facility'
2022-04-24
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Putin's regime is accused of 'covering-up' the death toll after a deadly fire at a weapons research facility

  • Blaze broke out at the Second Central Research Institute of the Ministry of Defence in Tver
    That’s where they develop new space and weapons systems, specifically the Iskander missile.
  • Four military scientists were forced to jump out of windows from the building on Thursday

  • But local journalists claim that 'at least 25' were killed, not 'up to seven' like state media says

#7  North Korea. Definitely a friendship to be proud of. Though to be fair, North Korea is equally a protectorate of Russia and Communist China, each hoping the other will take over when the music stops.

#1  Four military scientists were forced to jump out of windows

The expenditures committee has asked the survivors to explain the damages as they are not related to research.
