“The occupiers fired rockets at the shopping centre, there were more than 1,000 civilians. The mall is on fire, rescuers are trying to extinguish the fire, the number of victims is impossible to imagine.”
According to the Head of State, the building posed “no danger to the Russian army, no strategic value.”
“There was no danger to the Russian army. No strategic value. Only the attempt of people to live a normal life, which so angers the occupiers.”
The Head of Poltava Regional Military Administration Dmytro Lunin called the missile attack on the mall in Kremenchuk a crime against humanity, “an undisguised and cynical act of terror against the civilian population.”
