Steven Seagal Video Pushes Russia Claim HIMARS Killed Ukraine ... (Newsweek)

The Hollywood star is renowned for his pro-Russian stance and was filmed in Olenivka prison where dozens were killed and injured in an attack on July 29.

Seagal added a conspiracy angle by suggesting that Ukraine had used HIMARS because Zelensky wanted to silence a "Nazi" being held at the prison. Not to mention that the Russian government now does have a lot of artifacts from the HIMARS." Moscow alleged that Ukrainian forces used the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System, or HIMARS, to target the facility. "The interesting thing is that one of the killed Nazis is a Nazi who just started talking a lot about Zelensky," Seagal said, "and that Zelensky is responsible for the orders about torture and other atrocities." One of the justifications for Vladimir Putin's invasion of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine was to "denazify" the country. Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelensky called the attack a "Russian war crime" after Kyiv accused Moscow of shelling the prison to cover up the murder and torture of POWS.

Steven Seagal has not performed any known military service to any nation, nor is there an explanation in the video as to how he would have expertise in identifying the differences between missile damage and bomb damage. There were rumors that Steve Seagal had been deployed to combat in Ukraine along with Russian troops that were swiftly debunked, in large part because of the unlikelihood of a 70-year-old actor being called to ground warfare. The Russian-Ukrainian conflict has been rife with misinformation, and it is entirely possible that Steven Seagal was not actually present at the prison, which was being used to house largely Ukrainian soldiers who surrendered at Mariupol several months ago.
