“You don’t think there needs to be proof before Russia can claim that Ukraine was involved in the Crocus attack?”
PLENTY of proof, but if people are paid to discount it, then they WILL discount it.

Russian propaganda is not proof.
Being involved in an atrocity like that would not benefit Ukraine at all, but if their involvement came out then it would strengthen the Russian people’s support for Putin’s aggressive actions against Ukraine. Involvement in such a bloody attack on a civilian target would also damage Ukraine’s relationship with its Western backers. Clearly, that is why Sputnik fabricated this story.
