Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has made it clear that Russia will be held accountable for the attack on the Kramatosk railway station.
President Zelensky said in a video released on Facebook on the 9th (local time), “I will hold everyone responsible for the attack on Kramatorsk Station.”
President Zelensky said the attack on refugees in the region was another Russian war crime, similar to the recent secondary genocide.
He also called for a decisive and global response to Russia’s war crimes.
“With efforts around the world, it will become clear who gave the orders, where the rockets came from, who delivered the orders and how they attacked,” Zelensky said.
The Ukrainian government said the day before yesterday, a Tochka-U short-range ballistic missile fired by Russian forces hit a train station in the northern Donetsk city of Kramatorsk.
At least 52 people were killed and more than 300 injured, he said.
However, Russia denies the attack, claiming that the attack was a self-made play by the Ukrainian army.
