The attack of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the market in Tokmak, Zaporizhia region, is a war crime. This was announced on July 3 by the Russian Foreign Ministry's Ambassador-at-large for crimes of the Kiev regime, Rodion Miroshnik.

"The murder and attempt on the lives of civilians is a grave war crime, the blame for which lies with the Kiev regime," he wrote on the Telegram channel.

He also stated that such actions are comparable to the practices of the Nazis during World War II, when strikes were carried out on places of mass gathering of people in cities.

The governor of the Tokmak region, Yevgeny Balitsky, announced the attack on the market earlier that day. As a result of the incident, five people were killed and at least 18 others were injured. The Investigative Committee of Russia has opened a criminal case into the Ukrainian Armed Forces' strike on the market. Investigators and criminologists are working at the scene together with the operational services.
