"Means of deterrence": Lavrov urged the West to be aware of the responsibility for the death of civilians in Donbass

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov called false Kyiv's claims that the Russian army allegedly strikes at its own cities in order to disrupt Western arms supplies to Ukraine.

“In short, they lie.

And the facts are well known, these facts are presented by our Ministry of Defense on a daily basis,” Lavrov said.

He also called on Western countries to be aware of their responsibility for the deaths of civilians in the Donbass, against whom foreign models of weapons are used.

“Western countries should, of course, be aware of their responsibility, regardless of how and what Zelensky and his team interpret.

The West must be aware of its responsibility for the deaths of civilians, primarily in the Donbass, in other parts of Ukraine, where the Kyiv regime uses these weapons against the civilian population as a means of intimidation, by and large this is state terror, ”added the head of the foreign ministry.

On July 5, Ukrainian security forces shelled the Kyiv and Petrovsky districts of Donetsk, killing three civilians, including a ten-year-old girl, and injuring two more.

The Investigative Committee of Russia is establishing the identity of the Ukrainian military involved in the shelling.

The commander of the Belarusian battalion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was liquidated

Belarusian nationalist Ivan Marchuk, who took part in the hostilities in the Donbass on the side of Ukraine, was eliminated near Lisichansk, said Lieutenant Colonel of the People's Militia of the Lugansk People's Republic Andrei Marochko.

According to Ukrainian media, he commanded one of the battalions of the Kastus Kalinouski regiment.

“Information has been confirmed that a large group of nationalists has been liquidated in the Lisichansk region, including the Belarusian nationalist Ivan Marchuk with the call sign Brest,” RIA Novosti quotes Marochko.

In Belarus, a criminal case was initiated against members of the Kalinovsky battalion in March on complicity in an armed conflict on the territory of a foreign state.

“In general, I emphasize that these “Belarusian battalions” and “formations”, so widely advertised on the Internet, are, in fact, groups of renegades who are used to implement the next media project,” said Alexander Volfovich, head of the Security Council of Belarus, in an interview with the publication “ SB Belarus Today.

Publication of data of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine 

The RaHDit hacker group has published the data of 1,000 employees of the Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, RIA Novosti reports.

It is noted that the information was obtained due to flaws in the protection of the networks of the Central Directorate of the GUR on Rybalsky Island in Kyiv.

The list includes data on representatives of embassy residencies in the Russian Federation, India, Austria, Vietnam, South Africa, Italy, Turkey, Iran, as well as military intelligence curators in Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria and Slovakia, instructors in sabotage and representatives of special forces for conducting undercover and power intelligence.

“The materials, judging by my information, are beyond doubt,” a source in one of the Russian special services told RIA Novosti.

The use of complexes "Stupor"

Russian electromagnetic systems "Stupor" were successfully used for the first time during a special operation in Ukraine - in the west of the Donetsk People's Republic - against the drones of Ukrainian military personnel, a TASS source in law enforcement agencies said.

He noted that electromagnetic "guns" demonstrate a fairly high efficiency of use and are easy to use.

“By aiming the sight at the object and simply pressing the “Stupor” button, it jams the control signal between the operator and the drone, after which the Ukrainian drone is neutralized and forcibly lands in the right place.

The need for such portable anti-drones became obvious due to the large number of UAVs and various small copters used by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, ”said the agency’s interlocutor.

"Stupor" - the first domestic antidron gun.

This type of weapon is extremely easy to use, as it does not require special skills and experience.

When irradiated from four to 25 seconds, the UAV slowly descends to the surface.
