As the Russian press reports on the attack in the sum that killed over 30 people: “staked challenge”. Moscow version: The killed are soldiers
Vladimir Soloviov has cataloged the attack from Sumî as a “traditional attempt by the Ukrainian authorities to derail any possibility of negotiation”, within its show broadcast by the State State 24, reports the Russian independent publication The Moscow Times.
For their part, the Russian authorities came out on Monday with public statements in which they reject a bloody attack that killed civilians. “Following the hit target, over 60 soldiers of the Ukrainian armed forces were killed,” the Russian Ministry of Defense said. Also, the Kremlin spokesman, Dmitri Peskov, said that Russia strikes only military or army targets when asked about the attack on Sumî.
Two ballistic missiles hit the center of the Ukrainian city on Sunday morning near the border with Russia, the Ukrainian authorities announced. Ukrainian emergency services have announced that the missiles killed 34 people, including two children, and injured 117, including 15 children.
“We could not ignore the information that came from Sumî. Of course, (no. German publication) Deutsche Welle immediately accuses us:” A blow to the center of the city, a large number of victims, “said Soloviov.
“If you read Deutsche Welle, you have the impression that the classic German propaganda, of course in cooperation with the British, is trying to stage another Bucharest,” he said, referring to the suburb of Kiev who was occupied by the Russian forces in 2022 and where, after the Russian soldiers left, there was a significant number of cadav. Russians.
Moscow has denied responsibility for committing war crimes in Bucharest, instead accusing Ukraine and Western press of evidence.
The Rocket Attack in Sumî took place just two days after American emissary Steve Witkoff visited Russia to meet President Vladimir Putin, as part of US President Donald Trump's efforts to negotiate a fire in the war, which is now entering the fourth year.
“Little spends four hours talking to a representative of Donald Trump and something happens immediately. Of course, a series of nervous bloggers, mainly Ukrainians or pro-Ukrainians, are starting to shout” horror “,” Soloviov added. “Traditionally, it was a Ukrainian air defense missile that hit the wrong target, which, unfortunately, led to the death of some civilians,” he concluded.
“Such a challenge could be staged”
Also on the national television, Margarita Simonian, editor-in-chief of Russia Today, resumed Soloviov's statements. “They (no. Ukraine and the West) will continue to try to create another Bucharest because it is the only way they can extend the war.”
She, but in another show on the TVts, called the events in Sumî as “a challenge”.
“Such a challenge could be staged. Trump is a passionate man, not one to dig deeply or show the restraint that our president has,” she said, suggesting that the attack could have been “orchestrated” to influence Trump.
In a first reaction after the attack, Trump stated that he was told that they “made a mistake”, without detailing who was transmitted to him.
The US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, condemned the attack as “horrible” and “a tragic memory of why President Trump and his administration make so long and effort to try to put an end to this war and get a sustainable peace.”
Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelenski on Sunday on Trump to visit Ukraine to see the devastation alone.
The rocket bombings hit a central area of the city, crowded at that time, because many people were heading to the church, at the flower service. One of the attacks hit a trolleybus full of passengers.
Witnesses described panic scenes while people were running in the middle of cars in flames. The rescuers were seen by removing corpses from under the ruins of a building near a destroyed trolleybus, the dead being covered with silver thermal blankets.
