Interesting video, but old and dated.

There was an uprising against the communist regime but a few days into it the army carried out a coup, took down the top echelon of communist leaders, killed Ceausescu, and handed power to lower-ranking communists.

The latter, in order to solidify their hold on power, caused a series of friendly-fire incidents and spread confusion through television and radio, to make it look like the "revolution" (their coup) was under attack and they saved it.

At 19:42 for example the video talks about Securitate forces fighting army forces at the airport. That's not true. That was a friendly fire incident. Major General Dumitru Draghin was sentenced to 8 years in jail for it. Several other officers also got jail sentences.
