The Ukraine’s state railway company claimed on Friday that two Russian rockets had struck a railway station in Kramatorsk in eastern Ukraine, causing casualties.
This claim by the country’s rail company was coming barely 24 hours after United Nations General Assembly vote leading to suspension of Russia from the UN Human Rights Council and for which Volodymyr Zelenskiy thanked the UN.
The station, according A New Turkey, is used to evacuate civilians from areas under bombardment from Russian forces.
More than 30 people were killed and over 100 were wounded in a Russian rocket strike in east Ukraine on Friday as civilians tried to evacuate to safer parts of the country, the state railway company said.
Three trains carrying evacuees were blocked in the same region of Ukraine on Thursday after an air strike on the line, according to the head of Ukrainian Railways.
Ukrainian officials say Russian forces have been regrouping for a new offensive, and that Moscow plans to seize as much territory as it can in the eastern part of Ukraine known as Donbas bordering Russia.
Local authorities in some areas have been urging civilians to leave the while it is still possible and relatively safe to do so.
Moscow has denied many allegations by Kyiv including that of Bucha on which reason sentiment that led to its suspension from the human rights council was built.
Kremlin in Moscow particularly revealed how Ukraine itself was “heartlessly” shelling its own people of eastern side particularly of Dombass and Mariupol in order to help the UN in its gathering of human rights abuses evidences against Russia.
It was, however, said in certain quarters that in situation of war all rights and law are suspended, reason there must be effort by all parties and people, anywhere in the world to ensure that war does not break out but that, to raise human rights in situation of war is double standard and act that smacks of hypocrisy.
