"For the Protection of State Intessers": Putin awarded the title of "Guards" brigade, which knocked down the Boeing MH17

The text of the Russian president decree states that the occupiers were awarded "for mass heroism and bravery, stability and courage. " In 2014, the Buk's 53rd Anti-aircraft missile brigade was knocked down by Malaysian Boeing. President of the aggressor country Vladimir Putin gave the 53rd anti-aircraft missile brigade the honorary name of Guards. The text of the decree is posted on the portal of legal information.

It was the 53rd Brigade that belonged to the Buk's SC, from which the Malaysian Boeing, flying MH17 from the Netherlands, was shot down in 2014. The invaders were awarded "for mass heroism and courage, stability and courage", which were manifested in the protection of "State Intessers". According to the Putin decree, the 53rd anti-aircraft missile brigade should be called "Guards".

It should be reminded that investigators in the MH17 case in the Hague during a press conference dedicated to the suspension of the investigation, acquainted the public with the recording of Putin's intercepted conversation and the leader of "LNR" Igor Plotnitsky. According to the Dutch investigators, it was at the instructions of Putin that the DNR fighters were erected by the Buk's anti-aircraft missile system, from which the Malaysian Boeing was subsequently shot.
