2. What kind of oblong object similar to a hand grenade launcher shoots this "civilian" from behind at about 0:49?

Are you suggesting that this cyclist was trying to attack a column of armoured vehicles an a number of soldiers on his own?
There are satellite pictures of independent sources that place the corpses there, there is footage,... As said, if you need further confirmation I suggest you travel there yourself. You have nothing to fear from Putin's troops right? They would not shoot you being a civilian right?
Mariupol is a big separate story. Now Ukrainian marines are quite actively surrendering there, and Russian soldiers treat them within the framework of the Geneva Convention.
Geneva convention uh?
...
And as be.open pointed out, one of main questions you should ask yourself after any such incident would be "who benefits the most"
I always laughed when Assad supposedly gassed civilians AFTER the battle, since he would obviously had to be idiot to do it AFTER he won, or
actually do it at all. But all my western friends blindly followed USA propaganda and would not believe even "corrupted UN officials" (their words)
who would find that rebels did it
Edit: also, whoever don't want to follow "mad dictator" narrative should watch Oliver Stone extensive interview with Putin to find (some) of the Russia motives

Who benefits the most? Certainly not the guy in the bike.
Don't get me wrong, I do know what propaganda can make, but if there is footage, independent satellite imagery, witnesses,... What do you exactly need to rekon? I guess the answer is that it does not matter what evidence is presented in this or any other case, you will ignore it or doubt it (they are actors, is a setup, my interpretation is different, it cannot be clearly seen,...). It must be so hard for you guys trying to force facts to fit into your beliefs.
Playing the sceptic is super-cool, you think you are smarter and see what others cannot and you can say "I told you" when you are right, and at the same time nothing happens if you do not. I encourage you to put your feet where your doubts are.
Putin is not a mad dictator, he is simply a guy from another age and a Russian supremacist, like our troll be.open here. He is not mad, he understands his acts and the consequences, it is his ethics and understanding of the world, that is still anchored on the cold war and Russian supremacy that are causing this.
