Russia’s Putin vows retaliation after accusing Ukraine of hitting student dormitory
Russian President Vladimir Putin has vowed retaliation after accusing Ukraine of hitting a student dormitory in the breakaway region of Donetsk. The incident allegedly occurred on Friday in Donetsk, which has been controlled by Russian-backed separatists since 2014.
Putin stated that such actions by Ukraine will not go unanswered and that Russia will take all necessary measures to ensure the safety of Russian-speaking residents in the region. He accused Ukraine of escalating tensions and jeopardizing the peace process in Eastern Ukraine.
In response, Ukraine denied any involvement in the incident, labeling Putin’s claims as baseless propaganda. Ukrainian officials stated that they remain committed to the ceasefire agreements and accused Russia of fabricating the incident to justify further aggression.
The student dormitory reportedly suffered damage from the attack, but there were no reported casualties among the residents. The conflict in Eastern Ukraine has been ongoing since 2014 when Russia annexed Crimea, leading to a separatist insurgency in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
Both Russia and Ukraine have been engaged in a war of words, with tensions escalating in recent months. The international community has called for restraint from both sides to prevent further escalation of the conflict.
