Russia claims responsibility for this terrorist attack with which it has killed 25 civilians

This time the target was a Chaplyne railway station in Dnipropetrovsk. Russian Defense Minister Igor Konashenkov himself, has admitted today the attack through his Telegram account, stating that they did it with Iskander missiles and that they killed 200 Ukrainian soldiers. It is a new Kremlin lie. In reality, the target of the attack was a railway station and a civilian passenger train, causing the death of 25 civilians, including two children, and wounding 31. It is one more attack that Russian forces have been making against civilian targets: from residential areas to hospitals, including churches, schools and nurseries. Russia uses a strategy of terror against the civilian population after its failure to achieve its military objectives with this invasion.

Two children are among the fatalities

Yesterday Ukrainian President Volodímir Zelenski noted that an 11-year-old boy was killed when one of the Russian missiles hit his house. He also pointed out that five people were burned to death when his car caught fire. Today it became known that one of those five people was a 6-year-old girl.

The European Union has condemned what it has called "heinous attack by Russia on civilians", noting: "Those responsible for Russian rocket terror will be held accountable." The United States has noted that this Russian attack on civilians "fits a pattern of atrocities", adding: "We will continue, together with partners from around the world, to stand with Ukraine and seek accountability for Russian officials."
