At least 39 dead including two children and 100 hurt as Russian missile hits Ukrainian railway station packed with hundreds of civilians trying to flee: President Zelensky condemns 'evil that has no limits' Ukraine's state railway company announced attack on Kramatorsk's station, a city in the east of the country The governor of Ukraine's Donesk region said later on Friday the death toll had risen to at least 39 people Pictures from outside the station showed bodies strewn across the ground. Some were in body bags
Other pictures showed wreckage of a missile with Russian text written on the side reading 'For (our) children' Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelensky took to Instagram to decry the attack, confirming the casualties
Russia's defence ministry denied the attack, and instead claimed Ukraine was attacking its own civilians Kramatorsk is found in the east of the country, about 80 miles west of Luhansk in the country's Donbas region
Ukrainian authorities have urged residents to flee west as Russia refocuses its military efforts in the country's eastern Donbas region after recently pulling its forces back from Kyiv WARNING: Graphic images
At least 39 people were killed - including two children - and over 100 were wounded in a Russian rocket strike on a railway station in east Ukraine today, as desperate civilians tried to evacuate to safer parts of the country.

I will tell you this. The Russians also make the Tochka-U missile. Indications are they invented it. So some Freepers here posting that this type of missile is (only) Ukrainian is ridiculous. Their claims being that the Ukie army fired this Tochka-U at their packed train station. Bottom line is the Russians and Ukrainian have this missile
I don’t believe anything msm comes out with.
More like they were forced to fight for Ukraine. Didn’t you see the video of Azov Battalion members attacking UA soldiers who wanted to surrender? You believe every video you see, so you have to 100% believe the one I’m talking about. Otherwise, your post seems to indicate that the Ukrainians were to blame for the train station bombing. Oops!
And why did Russia make that move? Of course, the specter of having the 32 nation, virulently anti Russian, self professed (your big guy’s admission) Russian regime changing, corrupt NATO/Soros behemoth on your border, 300 miles from Moscow had nothing to do with this defensive action. You wouldn’t dare raise such questions about our noble 20 year brutal rampage through Iraq, 6000 miles away, to save us all from Saddam’s yellow cake. But you don’t concern yourself with such thoughts as it probably makes your head hurt. Just go with what you’re told. We’ve got to stop Putin before he takes over East Germany again.
Actually the video from the bombing in Donetsk a few weeks ago that killed 25 ethnic Russians in the DPR was even more graphic. That bomb was identified as Ukrainian and landed in the center of Donetsk at lunchtime. No military bases were located there. You can see it on Patrick Lancaster’s YouTube channel. It shows another side to the reality of this war in Ukraine and it may open your eyes to the brutality of the Ukrainian Army in the Donbas.
I agree with your post 100%
Liar.

Right, that's why Ukrainians who are ethnic Russians are enthusiastically opposing Putin's invasion-"they were forced to fight". Okay. Funny how the desertions are mostly on the Russian army side.

Countries voluntarily enter NATO, because they are all afraid of Russian aggression, as in Ukraine. Saying Putin HAD to invade weak Ukraine to protect Russia is moronic.
If that’s true, then those majority Ukrainians voted for separation in 2014. Since then they’ve been subjected to 24/7 shelling from the UA which has caused approximately 14,000 deaths. One must assume that over half of those victims are Ukrainians then.
“And they managed to fire it from the Ukrainian positions? Don’t be pathetic. Russia has nothing to gain from false flags like this, given the way the western media covers the conflict, whereas every atrocity is automatically pinned on Russia regardless the evidence.”
Tochka-U ballistic missile has a range of 120 kilometers. Talking through your hat, you have no idea where the Russkies fired it from at this train station. It is mounted on a truck so the personnel can shoot and scoot.
The Rooskies are doing the best propaganda to pin their missile strike on the Ukrainians. Perhaps this scheme was cooked up while drunk on vodka or what they could scrounge from Ukies home’s liquor cabinets.
Hopefully the truth will come out via satellite imagery. That shows what and who fired this Tochka U.
I’m just happy that Bucha is in the past. I’m sick to death of hearing about that “atrocity.” 🤣
What would you do if you wanted to terrorize citizens in order scare them away from train stations to prevent them from using trains to escape the hellhole.
Russian Military of Defense has claimed this morning that it used 'high-precision missiles' in Donetsk to strike railway stations in the region', specifically mentioning Slovyansk, the town next to Kramatorsk.

So if both Russia and Ukraine have this missile, why are you so quick to believe Russia is the perpetrator? Ask yourself who benefits from this attack? Why would Russia deliberately add to the world’s condemnation of them by killing civilians? And don’t forget the myriad lies Ukraine has told since this war began: Ghost of Kiev, Snake Island, Russians shooting at nuclear power plant. All disproven and yet you still defend them? 🤦♀️
In the second picture I saw debris scattered around a bunch of suitcases. I did not see any damaged suitcases......just saying

Whatever. You say the Ukies fired the Tochka-U. I say the Russians did it, and have their reasons for doing so. It is part of their terrorism against Ukrainian civilians.
“I like your new tagline!”
Thanks...people tend to lose focus as to who our REAL THREATS are, and instead reach for the ones who make them popular at cocktail parties.
