Russian Ministry of Defense told reporters on Friday that the missile strike on the Kramatorsk's railway station in eastern Ukraine was not carried out by Russian forces, according to RIA Novosti.
"All statements by the representatives of the Kiev nationalist regime about the 'missile attack' allegedly being carried out by Russia on April 8 at the railway station in the city of Kramatorsk are a provocation and absolutely untrue," asserted the Ministry. It emphasized that the Tochka-U tactical missiles, fragments of which were found near the station, are only used by Ukrainian forces.
Officials further claimed that "on April 8, the Russian armed forces had no fire missions in the city of Kramatorsk." Earlier, the Ukrainian state railway company shared that according to the preliminary information, at least 30 people were killed in the strikes, while over 100 have been wounded and accused Russia of the offensive.
