Samora Machel's Plane Crash: A Cold War Mystery
Descrição
I’ve assumed this is for the Machel video, since it uploads Saturday. Tell me if you meant Sankara or Ouko.
Description (paste as is)
On the night of 19 October 1986, a Tupolev Tu-134 carrying Mozambique’s president Samora Machel flew into the Lebombo mountains near Mbuzini, on the South African side of the border. Was it a crew error, or was the plane led off course on purpose?
Three investigations tried to answer that. They did not agree. In this video we go through what each inquiry found, separate what the record proves from what remains unverified, and look at the claims that came later and why none has been tested in court.
What the record proves, and what it doesn’t. Every claim in this video is attributed to its source, and claims are labelled as claims.
