Russian hybrid occupants boasted that they grabbed an Ukrainian Buk. However, Ukrainian authorities were fully aware
that no usable Buk was grabbed. All the news about the grab were with pre-war photos. The TELAR in the grabbed division was unusable.

The Buk TELAR which shot down MH17 and its crew were from Kursk, Russia, covertly moved from Russia to Ukraine in the morning of July 17, 2014 (the shootdown day). The vehicle towed on a low-loader was tentatively recognized as a Buk by a Donetsk local at
10:31 Kiev summer time, with more confidence in Torez at
12:08 Kiev time. The Ukrainian authorities closed all heights over occupied territory the same day in the evening. Do you suppose that in such situation authorities in other countries would be more swift?
