Original review summary

The review says neither circulating video shows Raisi’s fatal helicopter crash or his flight’s final moments. It identifies the first as footage of a 2022 helicopter crash in Georgia and the second as an older video of a Kurdish fighter attacking a Turkish military helicopter.[S1]

Additional context

The review says the first video shows a Georgian Border Police Mi-8 crash in July 2022, not the Raisi crash. [S1]

The review says the second video had circulated since around 2016 and depicts a Kurdish fighter destroying a Turkish military helicopter. [S1]
