Agents say a detailed study of the wreckage of this previously downed Russian plane is under way.
"Preliminary results show that one of the reasons for the failure of the parachute may be its intentional improper installation before departure," - said Ukrainian intelligence.
The captured Russian pilot said that the occupiers were deliberately ordered to attack the population of Ukraine with unguided bombs.
