The Russian general behind the attack on a Ukrainian railway station that was branded a 'crime against humanity' after it killed at least 50 civilians - including five children - who were fleeing Kremlin's atrocities
2022-04-09
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • Ukraine's state railway company announced attack on Kramatorsk's station, a city in the east of the country

  • The governor of Ukraine's Donesk region said later on Friday the death toll had risen to at least 50 people

  • Pictures from outside the station showed bodies strewn across the ground. Some were in body bags

  • Other pictures showed wreckage of a missile with Russian text written on the side reading 'For (our) children'

  • Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelensky took to Instagram to decry the attack, confirming the casualties

  • Russia's defence ministry denied the attack, and instead claimed Ukraine was attacking its own civilians

  • Kramatorsk is found in the east of the country, about 80 miles west of Luhansk in the country's Donbas region

  • Ukrainian authorities have urged residents to flee west as Russia refocuses its military efforts in the country's eastern Donbas region after recently pulling its forces back from Kyiv

  • Western officials believe Captain General Aleksandr Dvornikov, a Russian commander who oversaw devastation in Syria, is likely to have ordered yesterday’s fatal air strike on the station in Kramatorsk

#7  Yes, it's NATO and the CIA that convinced the Ukrainians they're a distinct people, not the repeated Russian attempts to exterminate them.

#6  Moving the war to the Donbas area is peculiar in that it involves inflicting bombardment and war on Russian speakers, for their own good of course, and apparently trying to do it by use of Syrian and Chechen mercenary forces.
If the Ukrainian forces attack their logistic support, they will undoubtedly take revenge on the residents of the already "independent" areas of the Eastern Ukraine.
Will local residents of the area stand up and cheer for this approach?


How popular will this be to anyone?

#1  The peoples pushing this sort of trash are for some strange reasons the same scum that imposed masks and vaccines on their populations It’s very sad the industrial scale killing that’s happened in Ukraine personally as a Russian I feel sorry even for the Azof’s…….it’s very sad. Even if they are Nazi’s, they are someone’s sons, fathers, they are men. But it has to be done. Genetically we are basically the same. And you can check this. Their genotype does not differ from Russians from ..(names a lot of cities in Russia) they dream in russian, speak in russian, think in Russian. But thanks to Cia and nato criminal propaganda and brainwash, they don’t consider themselves Russians. This is what lead to this.”
