We at @bellingcat have finally published our report revealing the identity of #MH17 person of interest 'Andrei Ivanovich' (Orion) -- it's GRU officer Oleg Ivannikov, who previously served as Minister of Defense of South Ossetia (yes, seriously).
bellingcat.com/news/uk-and-eu… Ivannikov served as Minister of Defense in South Ossetia from 2006-8 under the pseudonym of 'Andrei Ivanovich Laptev'. In 2012, he headed up a new think tank focusing on the breakaway republics of Georgia before going to Ukraine in 2014.

This will probably be boring to most, but oh well. I just woke up in the US and am watching the (already over) @JITMH17 press conference, and will tweet out observations/screenshots/etc. as I watch. Starts out with a bang, as we see Buk 332 in all of its glory. Very interesting reconstruction of all of the tiny details and damage marks on the Buk. See the @bellingcat report on all of these little details here: bellingcat.com/news/uk-and-eu…
