video captured the moment the russian military plane fell from the sky. good god, she screams. on the ground, snow-covered wreckage is spread across a feld in the western belgrade region. moscow accused ukrainian forces of shooting the plane down, killing all on board, including ukrainian soldiers to be released as part of a prisoner exchange. there were six prisoners on board and 65 ukrainian soldiers for exchange. he says. all the crew and passengers have died. cbs news can't verify who was on board, what caused it to crash, but a spokesperson for ukrainian military intelligence did say a prisoner exchange had been planned for today. the issue of p.o.w.s is deeply sensitive for both countries.

since the start of the war, both sides have carried out 49 prisoner exchanges, kyiv saying more than 8,000 ukrainians remain behind bars in russia, including civilians. ukraine's military hasn't directly addressed the kremlin claims or the crash itself, instead calling out attacks in kharkiv, the second largest, and the capital kyiv that killed 18 and injured more than 130 over the past 24 hours. if 65 ukrainian servicemen were killed in the downing of the plane as moscow says, it would be one of the largest single day death tolls in months in a war now in its 700th day. norah. >> imtia
