The minister accused foreign militants of using civilian infrastructure
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has accused Ukraine of allowing foreign mercenaries and Western generals to use civilian infrastructure to fight against Russia, and has vowed to destroy these groups.
Speaking at an online briefing on Friday, Lavrov said that Russia has “not seen confirmation of a single fact of deliberate shelling of civilian targets by the Russian army.” He claimed, however, that the Ukrainian side has been “violating international humanitarian law and committing a war crime by allowing mercenaries, Western generals and instructors to use civilian objects to hold all sorts of meetings.”
“If we discover such gatherings, for example, as in Kramatorsk, we will destroy them, because these are people who have declared war on us,” Lavrov said, referring to Russia’s recent high-precision strike on a temporary brigade base in the Donbass city of Kramatorsk on Tuesday.
The Russian Defense Ministry had claimed that the base was hosting a staff meeting involving dozens of Ukrainian officers and foreign advisers, and reported that the attack resulted in the deaths of “two generals, up to 50 officers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, as well as up to 20 foreign mercenaries and military advisers.”
Russian forces have continued to repel Ukrainian attacks on their defensive positions in Zaporozhye and Kherson Regions, as well as in Donbass, since Kiev launched its much-hyped counteroffensive earlier this month.
Ukraine has so far been unable to make any significant gains and has suffered numerous casualties, losing hundreds of servicemen and dozens of heavy equipment, including tanks and infantry fighting vehicles provided by Kiev’s Western backers, according to numerous media reports.

Unlike democrat party faggots like blinken-etc………..Lavrov speaks like a real man
I have to admit that I am surprised and amazed that the Russians have not completely destroyed the Ukrainians. Don’t know whether it is because they don’t want to or because they can’t. To m wars are like street fights. They are best when they are short and you kick their ass quickly.
Agree 1000%. The longer the Russians allow this to go on, the more time and opportunity they give NATO/US to cause havoc. Next up is a strike on the nuclear power plant, which the Ukuleles shouldn’t still be anywhere near.
You don’t understand whats happening then. Russia isn’t at war with the ukies, they are just the meat for the grinder. Russia is at war with the usausa, germany, french, uk, the nato criminals. These countries are sending the materials and it would be futile and stupid for Russia to rush in and have enemies on all sides shooting at them.
The best play is exactly what they are doing. Not getting baited into an escalation and letting the nato criminals bleed out in wealth and materials, in the meat grinder. Attrition fights are never quick’n painless for the attackers. Russia is quite ok with the nato criminals spending all their treasure banging and their heads against the Russian wall.
Right, as the US sinks further into debt and the nation becomes even more divided, Russia is gaing economic strength and international influence with non NATO nations. We are the idiots
rope-a-dope Its what made Ali a great strategic fighter. Covered up on the ropes and let the opponent expend all their energy bashing his elbows and gloves.
NeoCon criminals are to blinded by hate and self enriching to see that they are going to come out of this really bad. WE the people, need to go the extra mile afterwards and lynch everyone one of them in the City of London, govts and fucksticks like gates/soros/swabb/brin/bezos etc. there needs to be a serious purging.
that’s not strategy
Apparently, I understand what’s happening a lot better than you do. The longer this drags out, the more opportunities Russia gives their enemies to pull small shit that has big consequences, such as blowing up the dam. Next will be the nuclear plant, guaranteed.
Get your head out of your ass and wake up.
A direct war would almost assuredly go nuclear. I’m thankful at how patient and prudent are the Russians in power.
There won’t be a nuclear war. It doesn’t benefit the talmudic elite, who were promised dominion over the earth in Deuteronomy. If the earth is a contaminated, uninhabitable nuclear wasteland, there’s not much to exercise dominion over and YHVH doesn’t get his worship.
If you don’t think it would create a wasteland, it would make sense. Also, it’s not like the jews wouldn’t be happy being the rulers over a wasteland, just look at the places they are in power.
Not even the jews would be able to survive in a nuclear wasteland. It affects them, too. And don’t say they’ll just stay in underground bunkers. How long, realistically, could they all live in underground bunkers?
What is a nuclear wasteland? Hundreds of nukes were tested and people and wildlife live near those places today.
I just meant wasteland in general. jews don’t mind creating a sterile landscape, as long as they have slaves enough to keep them alive.
They, whoever they are, don’t hold the universe it their hands, or the unforeseen that human nature can and does present throughout all of human history.
You’ve been paying attention.
Rope a Dope.
Sergey Lavrov would make a much more believable nemesis if he wore a monacle instead of glasses.
He looks more like a senior partner at a large law firm.
Moar chartered accountant than senior anything IMHO.
Lol.
armenian
I never thought in my life that I’d kinda wish for those ‘foreign’ helpers to get blown into a mass of tissue. Fourth of July? Fck that too.
Russia doesn’t need to destroy Western Generals, woke liberalism has already done that.
