Investigations
- Witness account of Ukraine MH17 takedown confirmed by lie detector – investigators – RT, December 24, 2014
- There are "many signs" that flight MH17 was shot down by a Buk rocket, says chief prosecutor Fred Westerbeke, who coordinates the investigation into the disaster, in an interview with the NIS. Yet that is not the only scenario examined in the study, stresses Westerbeke. It also looks at the possibility that the aircraft was shot down from the sky.
- Russian investigators have interviewed the witness, and offered to share information with investigators in Netherlands. The witness was doing his military service at the same airfield. (TASS, December 24, 2014.) Markin: "The fact that the SBU has recognized that the pilot Voloshin exists is already an achievement. Whether he made the flight on July 17, is easy to check. Provide the so-called log of military activities to the Dutch competent authorities who conduct an official investigation, or better yet, give the opportunity to Voloshin (really existing , as it turned out), to pass a polygraph test conducted by Dutch or even better Malaysian specialists" 24 December, TASS
SBU
SBU: Captian Voloshin did not perform any flights on 17 July. "Information about Captain Voloshin is totally groundless. Aviation was not used at that time. On that day, Captain did not perform flights, and his plane was under repairs" (TASS, quoting Ukrainian media).
Adviser to SBU chief Markian Lubkivskii denies Komsomolskaya Pravda report. "It was determined that on 17.7 Ukrainian Air Force was not used, in accordance to ATO operation plan. "That was due to search and rescue mission, to rescue crews of AN 26, and SU 25 of Ukrainian Air Force, shot down on 14 and 17. 07. Absence of Ukrainian military planes in the area of the civilian airline crash is confirmed by objective control data of a system of data collection and processing of radar data of Dnepropetrovsk control center "Украэрорух" (UkrAirRukh). Voloshin confirmed that during ATO operation he did not use weapons against any airborne targets. SBU reports that Voloshin explanations are confirmed by objective flight control data of his military unit.

- How to reconcile this with the Vladislav Voloshin story? Wild, wild speculation: the Russians are telling the truth about Kolomoisky, Yakatsuts and Petrenko, where the Ukrainians have decided that they can’t resist the truth much longer and that they are pushing a fall guy into the spotlights, Vladislav Voloshin, to keep the real perpetrators and Ukrainian power brokers in the dark.

2017
Sov. Sekretno publishes apparently fake document with 'Voloshin V.' now ordered to fly by commander of military unit A/4104 based in Chuguev ordering (he was with 299 brigade of tactical aviation and flying from Dnepropetrovsk in previous reports, see above). Rus., Eng.
299 brigade of tactical aviation is officially based in Nikolaev, may be flying from closer airports of course, but previous story, above, was with him flying from Dnepropetrovsk. In 2014 video, it is mentioned that his flight from Chuguevo was on the previous day, 16 June, 2014.
8 July, 2017. Voloshin retires from armed forces, posts on social media. Not much detail relevant to MH17, but a passing phrase of the sort that he was (wrongly) accused, but will go on with his life (lit: I survived accusations of 'murdering children of Donbass' and death of 298 people from Malaysian Boeing, and will survive your comments too. We will live. Glory to Ukraine!). This post and a photo also on Cassad.
