“There is no Russian military convoy that allegedly crossed the Russian-Ukrainian border, either at night or during the day. And it would be best if the Ukrainian artillery destroyed the phantom, and not refugees or its own military personnel,” said the official representative of the Russian military department, Major General Igor Konashenkov, as quoted by Intrefax.
“Such statements based on some kind of fantasies, or rather, assumptions of journalists, should not be the subject of serious discussion by senior officials of any country,” Konashenkov said.
According to him, the department regrets “that the reason for loud statements at the highest level in a number of European and “chosen the European path” states are not facts, but journalistic canards on social networks.”
He added that Moscow would not be surprised “if the Ukrainian side demonstrates its burned equipment.”
As Navigator reported, British journalists reported yesterday that a convoy of Russian military equipment crossed the border of Ukraine. The entry of Russian armored vehicles into Ukraine was confirmed by the ATO headquarters and NATO. Later, the National Security and Defense Council and the presidential administration reported that some of the equipment had already been destroyed.
