The spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, reported today that the ministry will organize a visit for foreign journalists accredited in Moscow to the site of the Ukrainian attack in Starobelsk, Lugansk People's Republic.

The spokeswoman wrote this Saturday on her Telegram channel that the Foreign Ministry decided to organize the visit to the site of the tragedy following statements by some Western countries at the UN, which denied that the attack had taken place.

“In relation to the blatant lie spread in the UN Security Council by Western countries, in particular by the permanent representative of Latvia, who has lost her dignity, claiming that there were no Ukrainian attacks on the Starobelsk school, we will organize a visit to the site of the tragedy for foreign journalists accredited in Moscow,” Zakharova specified.

This Friday, Lugansk authorities reported that Ukrainian troops attacked the academic building and the residence of a teacher training school in Starobelsk with drones, where 86 minors were present. So far, 10 deaths and more than 48 injuries have been reported, while 11 others remain under the rubble.
