Bloomberg: Russia Vows Revenge for Strike on City Near Ukraine Border
(Bloomberg) -- Russia’s defense ministry vowed revenge for a deadly strike on Belgorod, claiming that Ukraine’s military had used so-called cluster bombs in the attack. “This crime will not go unpunished,” the ministry said in a statement about the strike on the city about 30 kilometers (19 miles) north of Russia’s border with Ukraine.
At least 18 people were killed, the New York Times reported, citing Russian authorities. The dead included two children, and more than 100 people were injured.
Multiple explosions were heard on Saturday evening in Ukrainian cities from Kharkiv and Sumy, near the Russian border, to Kherson in the south, with widespread air raid alerts triggered.
Russia’s foreign ministry has called for a United Nations Security Council meeting Saturday to discuss the attack, Tass said.
