Quote: "On 8 May, which is marked as the Day of Remembrance and Reconciliation in Ukraine, the ‘Kyiv regime’ plans to carry out another subtle provocation causing the death of civilians in the western regions of the country, so that Russia’s Armed Forces can subsequently be blamed for indiscriminate missile strikes.
To this end, units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces will fire Tochka-U ballistic missiles at crowded places in settlements in the Lviv and Volyn Regions, as previously happened at the railway station in Kramatorsk."
Details: The aggressors have been also quick to add that the Ukrainian authorities are preparing "these provocations" with the approval of "Western curators".
In addition, the Russians confessed to another crime - namely that Russians "shelled private residential buildings using armoured vehicles marked with a ‘Z’, forcibly confiscated valuables and private cars from people, and physically abused those civilians who showed any resistance" in "the settlements of Siversk and Serebrianka in Donetsk Region."
The Russian agency writes that in fact all these were "combatants of national battalions disguised in Russian uniforms".
The Russian agency also reported that all acts of looting had been recorded by foreign and Ukrainian journalists, so new instances of Russian crimes are expected to appear in the Ukrainian and international media.
Background:
On the morning of 8 April, the Russian invaders fired rockets at a railway station in Kramatorsk. Early reports indicated that 50 people had been killed in the missile strike on Kramatorsk railway station.
Russian Telegram channels reported before the strike that the aggressors had shelled a railway station in Kramatorsk because there had allegedly been "nationalists" there.
The aggressors deleted this information from social media when it became known that there had been civilians at the railway station.
