The Russian Invasion that wasn't…. +++ Updated: Provenance of Photos Showing Atrocities Questioned Inhofe Criticizes Ukrainian Group for Providing Misleading Photos Russian tanks, soldiers / Photo provided by Sen. Inhofe BY: Adam Kredo February 12, 2015 1:15 pm UPDATE 3:11 P.M.: Following publication of this story, serious questions have been raised about the authenticity of some of the photographs provided by Sen. Jim Inhofe (R., Okla.). Several images of the Russian convoys appear to have been taken in 2008, during Russia’s conflict with Georgia. Given the similarities between the earlier images and those provided by the senator’s office, the Washington Free Beacon is investigating further and will update as necessary. When asked about the discrepancies, Donelle Harder, Inhofe’s communications director, said that the office is checking back with its sources. “These were presented to the Armed Services Committee from a delegation from Ukraine in December,” Harder said. “In December, we talked to them about publishing the photos and giving them the credit, and they were fine with that. We thoroughly checked our sources again prior to releasing the photos, and felt confident proceeding because the photos also match reporting. We are currently making calls to our sources.”
