In a significant development emerging from Moscow, the Russian defense ministry released a statement on Friday, accusing Ukrainian armed forces of instigating a distressing situation in Luhansk, a city situated in eastern Ukraine and currently under Russian control. The accusation centered on the alleged firing of five advanced ATACMS missiles, which are supplied by the United States. This purported attack reportedly resulted in the injury of 20 individuals, among whom were reported to be children.
According to the statement issued by the Russian defense ministry, while their air defense systems successfully intercepted four out of the five incoming missiles, one missile managed to evade interception and inflicted damage upon two residential apartment blocks. The statement further insinuated that this specific targeting of civilian infrastructure was conducted intentionally, alleging a deliberate act of aggression.
