Quote: "We had a not-so-pleasant case when our citizens, not understanding a very dangerous situation, posted a video [of air defence operations – ed.]. This is unacceptable. Moreover, I am more than sure that those who do such things will be held responsible for this."
Details: Commenting on a question regarding a statement by the Russian Defence Ministry about the alleged destruction of a Patriot system in Ukraine, Danilov said that "they need to say something, declare something".
