Here's a more detailed Reuters article, which also links to the original NY Times article. The News24 article did not provide such a link (bad journalist!).

The claims are also refuted in this article: https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/09/19/7420435/
Pravda's claim that the Buk air defense systems are not in service does seem valid as it was reported way back in April 2023 that Buk missiles were going to be depleted by May 2023. https://time.com/6271538/ukraine-air-defense-shortages-russia/
Even if the missile was fired by Ukraine- it still would be Russias fault since Ukraine just defends itself against the Aggressor.
- The aggressor is US/NATO, which Russia is defending itself against.
  
  Do you tankies all just like sniff a fuckload of glue or what? The country that invade another is defending itself and not the aggressor. It's the country/alliance donating to the defense of the invaded country that is the true invader. Of course.
  
  As evidenced by all those NATO troops on Russian territory. Oh, wait. There's none.
  
  Yeah the Kremlin is so worried about being invaded that they're using all their troops in a genocidal land grab and can't even guard their own capitol.
  
  If Russia was actually fighting against NATO troops, it would have lost long ago. And you know it.
  But you probably just need to pretend that Russia is fighting against big bad NATO so you don’t have to feel bad that all those Russians died and there is nothing to even show for.
  
  Hey look, it's somebody somehow posting from bizarro-universe where everything is opposite!
