Kremlin complains after Ukraine hits back with attacks on Belgorod; more Russians troops die as military’s quality degrades, says British MoD
The Ukrainian MP Lesia Vasylenko has said Russia is “targeting and hitting civilian buildings”, following the fresh bombardment on Ukrainian regions.
In an interview with BBC Radio 4’s Broadcasting House, she said colleagues had told her that:
There has been destruction of so many civilian buildings, the administration, the hotels, just the debris fron the drones and the missiles which were hitting just residential areas.
Now Russia is launching these missiles – it’s the C-300s along with the drones – not even covering up that they’re trying to hit energy infrastructure, which essentially is civilian infrastructure, but actually targeting and hitting civilian buildings.
The weapons are coming, there’s ammunition, but we need to have guarantees that these deliveries and this military assistance will be coming for as long as it takes.
