Russia’s Foreign Ministry alleges that Ukrainian attacks have resulted in the deaths of 86 civilians and injuries to 409 others over the past ten days. According to spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, the attacks, occurring between July 15th and 24th, included the deaths of six children and injuries to twelve. The claim centers on attacks within Russian territory, a point of contention given the ongoing conflict. These reported casualties represent a significant escalation in alleged cross-border attacks. Moscow has consistently accused Ukraine of targeting civilian infrastructure, accusations Ukraine disputes. Independent verification of these claims remains challenging due to restricted access to the reported areas. The Russian MFA is using these figures to bolster its narrative surrounding the conflict.
