On July 8, Guterres issued a statement that Russia had attacked civilian targets in Ukraine. However, the UN Secretary-General did not provide evidence. Moscow regrets that the UN Security Council is being dragged into “kyiv’s dirty propaganda campaign,” the Russian permanent representative noted.
On Tuesday, at the request of Western states, a meeting of the UN Security Council was held after the missile incident that hit a children’s hospital in kyiv. Nebenzya said that the anti-missile missile of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was probably launched to intercept an attack on a military plant. The diplomat also noted that such provocations have occurred before every NATO summit since the inception of the North-Eastern Military District.
