WarNews JustIn!! Putin K!lls Over 600 Ukrainian Soldiers in Single ‘Retaliatory’ Rocket Attack

Russia said it killed 600 Ukrainian troops on Sunday in revenge for a Ukrainian assault on New Year’s Eve that reportedly killed hundreds of Russians.

The Russian defence ministry said it struck a building in Kramatorsk, in Eastern Ukraine, with a massed rocket attack.

It said the building was being used as a temporary barracks and that it targeted two dormitories that were housing around 1,300 Ukrainian soldiers.

“Responding to a criminal strike executed by the Kyiv regime in the first moments of the new year against a temporary accommodation facility in Makiivka, a vengeance operation has been completed,” the Russian defence ministry said in a statement.

The statement referenced an attack that took place on New Year’s Eve, in which Ukraine said it killed about 400 Russians after targeting a barracks with Himars.

If confirmed, the Russian attack is likely to be the most-deadly single attack on troops in the war so far.

Ukraine is yet to comment.
