⚡️Ambassador at Large of the Russian Foreign MinistryRodion Miroshnik: 💬 In the very first minutes of the New Year, the Kiev regime stained it with blood, leaving dozens of civilians killed and wounded in Russia’s Kherson Region. The New Year address of the Ukrainian dictator was broadcast at the very moment when dozens of peaceful residents were dying as a result of a strike carried out on his direct orders. A drone attack targeting a location crowded with civilians in the Kherson Region amounts to a deliberate act of terrorism, which continues the ongoing pattern of inhumane killings by Ukrainian neo-Nazis. The massive drone strike carried out by Ukrainian militants on New Year’s night against a purely civilian site, crowded with peaceful residents, clearly demonstrates their irreconcilable hostility to any prospect of ending the bloodshed through political and diplomatic means. The deaths of civilians and the continuing bloodshed are a price the Zelensky regime pays without hesitation to cling to power, shield its corrupt inner circle, and meet the demands of its European patrons – for whom even the prospect of ending the bloodshed in Ukraine is unacceptable. This barbaric act must receive the harshest legal and political assessment from all countries for which the very notion of international humanitarian law is not an empty phrase. Russian diplomats will raise this issue at all key international platforms. The killing of dozens of civilians by Ukrainian militants cannot and must not go unpunished. As of now, 24 civilians have been killed and 50 wounded. Among the injured are six children aged 6 to 17. #KievRegimeCrimes
