Russian diplomat says no excuse for barbaric attack on Donetsk
There can be no excuse for the barbarous attack on Donetsk, Kiev has trampled upon all moral norms, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Friday.
"Overnight to February 3, Donetsk was heavily bombarded by the Ukrainian military," the Russian diplomat said. "This barbaric attack cannot be justified, Kiev has violated not only the Geneva Convention for the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War, dated August 12, 1949, but also trampled upon all moral norms."
Kiev is shamelessly demonstrating its actions in Donbass, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Friday.
"The delivery of strikes by heavy artillery - is this how Kiev is demonstrating the unity of its country and the people?" the spokeswoman said.
"Today Kiev is not only expressing no concern over a new spiral of the crisis but is showing off without any compunction its actions in Donbass and even used the UN Security Council venue for this," the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman said.
