“The Russians spoiled yesterday’s Independence Day with maniacal brutality. First, the number of shelling of populated areas increased. Over the past day, the police recorded shelling of 58 populated areas – this is a much higher number of shelling than we usually record.”
The Minister added that on August 24, the Russian army also launched a rocket attack on a railway station in the Dnipropetrovsk region, as a result of which more than 20 people were killed and dozens were injured.
In addition, according to him, a wave of fake “mining” swept across Ukraine last day.
“Telephone terrorists “mined” railway stations in Vinnytsia, Rivne, and Khmelnytskyi. Anonymous reports were received about the mining of objects in Lviv, Mukachevo, and Dnipro. In total, the police units received 17 such reports, in which 118 objects were mined. The total number of evacuated people was almost 3,800 people.”
