Russian Embassy in the United States: The United States Responds to Ukrainian Army Attacks, Russian Journalists Responsible for Ammunition | Cluster | United States
According to the Russian Sputnik News Agency on July 23, the Russian Embassy in Washington said that the United States should be responsible for the Ukrainian military cluster munitions attack on Russian journalists, which led to the death of journalist Rostislav Zhulavlev.
According to the report, the Russian Embassy stated in a comment: "US officials have assured the international community that Ukrainians will use these weapons' selectively and responsibly '. The ineffectiveness of these words is evident. The use of cluster weapons by the Kiev regime against civilians confirms that Washington is losing control of its puppets. The Ukrainian military is desperate due to the severe situation on the front line, and has committed the most brutal acts. The conscience of the United States is responsible for prolonging the conflict and causing new civilian casualties."
The Russian embassy emphasized that Zhulavlev died in a cluster ammunition attack by the Ukrainian army, and that "Kiev obtained such weapons from the United States.".
The Russian Embassy wishes the injured colleague of Rulavyov a speedy recovery and expresses condolences for the journalist's passing.
According to the earlier reports of Russian Sputnik News Agency and Reuters, the Russian Ministry of Defense said that a group of Russian journalists were shelled by Ukrainian forces in Zaporoge on July 22, killing one journalist and injuring three others.
