#Ukraine

▪️Lately, the Banderites have been literally hunting down unarmed people, targeting them with armed drones.

According to DPR officials, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have stepped up their drone attacks against the Holy Dormition Nikolo-Vasilyevsky Monastery near Ugledar. Home to several dozen monks, this monastery has been regularly and cynically targeted by Ukraine. The January 29, 2024 attack left a priest wounded.

There is no doubt that these are deliberate and premeditated actions by the Banderites. Drone operators can clearly see what is going on and know their targets, whether they are after military vehicles or an ordinary family shopping at an outdoor market.

☝️ Russian law enforcement agencies have been gathering all the details on these atrocities, and all those involved in them will be identified and held to account.
