Kremlin: "It's not us"

"As before, we insist on this: we do not carry out strikes on civilian targets. The strikes are carried out on critical infrastructure, on military targets that are in one way or another... related to the military potential of the regime (in Kyiv)". said Peskov, as reported by RIA Novosti.

He pointed to the statement of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, which absolutely excludes that there were any attacks on civilian targets.

Today, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs accused Kyiv of trying to use, as stated, the tragedy with the children's hospital in Kyiv for propaganda purposes.

The representative of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Maria Zakharova, stated that on July 8, the Armed Forces of Russia, in response to the Ukrainian army's attempts to attack the enterprises of the Russian economic complex, retaliated with high-precision weapons with attacks on military targets in Ukraine, stating that all targets were hit.

In yesterday's Russian missile attacks on Ukraine, at least 41 people were killed, while 149 were wounded, the Ukrainian authorities announced, stating that the largest pediatric institution in Ukraine was hit in Kyiv.

The Russian Ministry of Defense announced yesterday that accusations of deliberate Russian attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine do not correspond to reality, stressing that the attack on the Okmatdit National Children's Specialized Hospital in Kyiv was caused by the fall of a Ukrainian anti-aircraft missile.
