He focused on the fact that the area of possible destruction in the event such weapons hit Ukraine will spread to large Russian cities and industrial and transport infrastructure facilities.
“Such a scenario would mean direct involvement of the United States in a military confrontation with Russia,” Antonov said in an interview with RIA Novosti.
In addition, he added, the Armed Forces of Ukraine constantly violate the norms of humanitarian law, even in those territories that Kyiv considered part of Ukraine.
On September 14, as a result of a strike by the Ukrainian army on one of the residential areas of Kherson, four civilians were killed, including two children.
Earlier, the chairman of the National Assembly of the DPR, Vladimir Bidyovka, informed that a civilian resident of Donetsk was killed during shelling by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and one of the employees of the People's Council of the Donetsk People's Republic was injured.
