| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to the Dershow. Let us happen since the last time we met, particularly the |
| 0:12.5 | horrible brutality and apparent killing of civilians in areas around Kyiv, obviously. |
| 0:20.8 | The evidence shows fairly conclusively that Russian soldiers were responsible for murdering |
| 0:27.0 | in cold blood, shooting at close range, civilians tying some of their hands behind their |
| 0:32.1 | back, not expectantly. Unexpectedly, the Russians claimed none of the Ukrainians did |
| 0:36.7 | it. It's a false flag operation, obviously, investigation. We'll determine the truth |
