Hi Oliver, this was a fascinating read. However, I have seen several images that purport to show the truck still intact after the explosion happened. It is my understanding that they look at the videos frame by frame, which appears to show the flash of the explosion and the truck unharmed. Could you comment on these? Is there any veracity to them?
Very interesting analysis. Is there any theory about the driver and how the explosion was initiated? Driver unaware and explosion detonated remotely killing the driver? Driver fled the truck prior to explosion? Suicide mission?
Hi Oliver, good analysis with new photos (truck stub axel) continuing to point in the same direction. I did a simple evaluation of the position of the truck https://imgur.com/a/JJSsY7v and https://i.imgur.com/3ASCbBs.jpg in relation to the debris field, and base on the damage it seem the center of the explosion would overlap the mid to rear of the truck container. I'm curious what there has been so few analysis or 3D reconstruction of the attack, once you see all the evidence put together this seem a pretty shut case.

Could it have been an accidental detonation of a truckload of Russian explosives being moved into Crimea I.e. a VBIED but not intentionally?
