Russia says US is responsible for deadly Ukrainian attack on Crimea
MOSCOW -Russia said on Sunday that the United States was responsible for a Ukrainian attack on the Russian-annexed Crimean peninsula with five U.S.-supplied missiles that killed at least five people including three children and injured 124 more.
"Responsibility for the deliberate missile attack on the civilians of Sevastopol is borne above all by Washington, which supplied these weapons to Ukraine, and by the Kyiv regime, from whose territory this strike was carried out," the ministry said. At least 124 were injured, Russian Health Minister Mikhail Murashko said. The injured included 27 children, five of whom are in a serious condition, authorities said.Russia will respond to Sunday's attack, the Defence Ministry said, without elaborating. The Kremlin said President Vladimir Putin has been"in constant contact with the military" since the attack on Sevastopol.
Putin has repeatedly accused the U.S. of using Ukraine to undermine Russia's own security - something Kyiv and its Western allies deny - and has warned of growing risks of a direct confrontation between Moscow and the U.S.-led NATO alliance.
