Margarita Simonyan recalled that people in Lisichansk were killed from the American HIMARS. “Why are you, America, denying the search for happiness, freedom and life to these people who live there? And all they want is to live the way they want,” she said.

The editor-in-chief of RT and MIA Rossiya Segodnya said that there was no military sense in this. The impact killed 28 people, including a child.
