Ukraine has the right to self-defense, and retaliation.
But, that doesn’t mean we should believe the propaganda. Nor does it mean that Russia isn’t still ultimately at fault, as these strikes are only happening in response to their brutal invasion and air campaign.
Seriously, do you believe Russia when they claim the only civilians killed during their missile barrages are from Ukrainian air defense missiles?
If anything, I assumed this was their ironic “fuck you” press release to mock the way Russia says the same shit every time their missiles hit civilian targets.
Is it possible this was a result of a Russian air defense system? Sure, but too early to take immediate claims as credible.
