Videos posted on Russian social media on Saturday showed a helicopter apparently being shot down over Russia's Bryansk region, bordering Ukraine. The state news agency TASS cited an emergency services official as saying preliminary information indicated the helicopter's engine had caught fire before the crash near Klintsy, which is around 40 km (25 miles) from the border.
However, a video posted on the Russian pro-war Telegram channel Voyenniy Osvedomitel, which has around half a million followers, showed a helicopter high in the sky exploding, being thrown off course and then plunging earthwards in flames.
