Military observer, retired colonel Viktor Litovkin, in an interview with RT, commented on the report that the Kyiv regime used Storm Shadow aircraft missiles to attack civilian targets in Lugansk. "The fact that civilian objects are being attacked is a manifestation of the barbarism of theKyiv regime," he said.

He also noted that the Tactics of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are similar to the tactics of "scorched earth"."Ukrainian soldiers, this Bandera government, when they leave their positions, shoot houses so that they do not go to those people who did not want to live with them in the same state," he added.
