Russian military openly lies that they were striking hangars storing weapons in Kremenchuk

Ukrainska Pravda - TUESDAY, 28 JUNE, 2022, 12:18

The Russian military has become accustomed to lying in order to justify their crimes against the civilian population of Ukraine. On the second day after the attack on the Amstor shopping centre in Kremenchuk, where hundreds of people were shopping at the time, the Russian Ministry of Defence produced new fakes about the crime committed by Russian forces.

Details: The Russian military is, as usual, trying to absolve its military of responsibility for shelling residential neighbourhoods and killing civilians.

In particular, Russia has proposed two false allegations. The first allegation is that they struck a warehouse holding weapons that came from Europe and the United States. The second lie is that the shopping centre, which allegedly caught fire as a result of the detonating shells, did not operate at the time and there were no people there.

However, as noted by the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, Denys Monastyrskyy, there are no military facilities within a 5 km radius of the Amstor shopping centre in Kremenchuk.
