The Russian Foreign Ministry has summoned the US ambassador to Moscow after Ukraine used American-supplied ATACMS missiles in an attack on the Crimean peninsula, resulting in numerous civilian casualties.
In a statement on Monday, the ministry said Ambassador Lynne Tracy had been presented with a demarche in connection with what it called “a new bloody crime of the Kiev regime patronized and armed by Washington,” referring to the Ukrainian shelling of Sevastopol the day before.
According to the Russian Defense Ministry, the Ukrainian attack occurred around noon local time on Sunday, involving five ATACMS missiles armed with cluster munitions, which are outlawed in more than 100 countries. Officials said four rockets had been destroyed in mid-air, while a fifth was damaged by air defenses, veered off course, and detonated over Sevastopol. Local authorities say the strike killed four people, including two children, and injured more than 150.
In conversation with Tracy, Russian officials emphasized that the United States was “waging a hybrid war against Russia,” and had become party to the Ukraine conflict by supplying Kiev with modern weapons, including ATACMS missiles with cluster munitions. The ministry also noted that American military specialists were actively engaged in designing the flight mission for ATACMS, which means they “bear the same responsibility for this atrocity as the Kiev regime.”
The ministry added that Tracy had been told that the US was “encouraging the pro-Nazi Ukrainian authorities to continue hostilities until the ‘last Ukrainian’” by approving strikes deep inside Russian territory. These actions by Washington “will not go unpunished,” Moscow warned.
The US Embassy in Moscow has yet to comment. When asked for its take on the deadly Ukrainian strike, the Pentagon replied that “we have seen the reports and have nothing to say.”
Commenting on potential retaliation on Monday, Kremlin Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov recalled what he described as a “very important” statement by Russian President Vladimir Putin, in which he said Moscow could send its long-range weapons to regions where they could be used to attack countries that provide Ukraine with military support.

If our people had ANY hand in this the hammer needs to come down on their heads. Start at the rotten head of the rotten fish and work down. All who participated need punishment, and publicly, to prevent a reprise by others so inclined toward corruption of this sort.
It’s a BS story until proven otherwise.
I’m betting Poland will feel the first throat punch.
Poland deserves a beatdown for getting away with murdering non polish prisoners inside the labor camps during ww2.
lols. It is almost cute.
Wow, that photo sure is convincing. It’s exactly the photo I would use to show death and destruction.
/do I even have to?
🤔
Wow, 7 seconds that show nothing.
The Bots are glowfags…who knew.
That’s what I said.
A jerky video with odd sounds.
I didn’t see anything hit the ground or any person.
Worse evidence than the garbage October 7th training exercise that was sold as a real attack.
Go back and look at the totality of that video.
There is less than two minutes total video from the entire claimed event.
On that note, where is ANY VIDEO of Hamas militants shooting at IDF?
Tons and tons of video of armed IDF shooting everything in sight, but not a single video of a claimed Hamas fighter hokding a weapon and standing opposed.
This is true during the entire period since Oct 7.
I have never seen since oct 7 of last year, a single video of a Hamas soldier shooting back at IDF.
In the absence of such video?
One can only conclude they are murdering the idiot pallies, using the 3 vise that the pallies express hatred of israel… for stealing their homes.
Anti semitism always follow anti gentilism.
Then wicked jews punish you for speaking out about being abused and murdered by jews.
I think.
I think it’s just hype, but I don’t know that it didn’t happen and I’d be more suspicious if they had lots of ridiculous footage, like Crocus.
There was a longer version of that video above that I saw shortly after it happened; there was screaming, lot of running around, blood on the sand, and a child injured being attended to. Wish I could find it but it may have been scrubbed/edited. Well….like the one above was edited.
Isn’t it rich to see the Ruskies get their boxers in a bunch for someone doing to them what they have been doing to the Ukes. for 2 1/2 years.
I understand your down votes. There is a huge difference between innocent women and children killed in their beds by a missile strike on their apartment in Ukraine and the same type of people killed sunning themselves on a beach in illegally annexed and occupied Russian territory. You are mad because the latter incident didn’t happen to real Russians.
It started because of fucking war whore Victoria Nuland and a host of uniparty grifters overthrowing the government of Ukraine and inserting their lackeys who began murdering ethnic Russians wholesale in eastern Ukraine.
Crimea has been part of Russia for hundreds of years. It was signed over to the UkraineSSR in the early 60’s by Ukrainian Nikita Khrushchev. As it was all part of the Soviet Union it made no difference. When Nuland and the grifters started making noise about making it a NATO naval base Russia did what this forced them to do. Have you ever heard of the Misnk Agreement? The US and NATO have broken every single article of it, not Russia.
Nuland was Obama’s, H. Clinton’s, and John McCain’s servant in Ukraine. She didn’t , inspire, organize and fund a insurrection all on her own.
The whole line that we imposed a government after a quiet coup is wrong. So is the idea that Russia had to invade another country because it might join NATO. If the Ukrainians had not wanted a different gov’t they wouldn’t have stayed out in the streets during a harsh winter protesting the gov’t in place and the shooting of innocent protesters by gov’t sharpshooters. Of course we helped the protesters because the gov’t they wanted to replace was pro-Russian. But, we couldn’t have paid a hundred thousand people to protest for four months. If we had, the paper trail would have been left to prove it. Where is the proof?
As for Minsk, we apparently reneged on some of our promises, something the Russians have never done. But all gov’ts lie in their self interest, right?
The real reason Russia actually invaded the Ukraine, unlike the Baltic nations and Poland, is because the latter were already in NATO and the large minority of ethnic Russians in the Donbas and Crimea gave them a plausible excuse.
I hope you are not in charge when the Mexicans, after our present society collapses, invade Texas, California, and the Southwest, on the basis we stole them and they are filled with ethnic Mexicans.
For God’s sakes Mr. Hyde, what an ignorant and uninformed comment. The Russians entered the Donbas to save the citizens from the Uke shelling that killed over 14,000 innocent civilians as a result of Vicky Nuland’s Maidan Square color revolution…Vicky’s fat, wrinkled neo-con ass is behind all this death and destruction and the faggot Zelensky’s Presidency..
The Obumer regime started this back in 2014. Ruthless missile attach’s in side Russia from Ukraine with US supplied armament. The story is out there, you just won’t see it on CNN.

Any bets on Muslims being appeased and this being blamed on Western-Neo-Nazi-LGBTQ-CIA?
Moscow and China need to start sinking our fleet of obsolete ships.
The will if they absolutely have to, and not a minute before, if any of this geotheater is real. They are cast as the actors who are not raving psycopaths, like the cast of our countries are.
US of Gay fucking around…
…soon will come the finding out.
When?
Soon….
Ok
He’s totally serious when he say soon.
Two more weeks.
Funny, I don’t view any of the Biden administrations Ambassadors as American…
I don’t view any Biden as American…
Biden=Button
As in Push The Damn Button!
This incident tells me that the Ukies are getting desperate. They will try anything to help their situation. The uproar is all bullshit. PTB in USA,Russia,Ukraine and NATO don’t really care because there is no such thing as Rules of War.
The Ukies better win then. Popping off a cluster munition over a civilian beach is a war crime. After VE Day, the Russians took German prisoners to dozens, maybe hundreds of towns and villages and with the townsfolk all watching hanged large numbers at every stop. That’s why only 6,000 out of a quarter million plus German POWs returned after the war. They would tie ropes around their necks and then to an overhang or post with all standing in the back of a deuce and a half looking truck and then drive off leaving the German victims strangling. That awaits defeated Ukies if they don’t make a deal very soon.
Yes.
They murdered pows.
So did Eisenhower.
Eisenhower was far more efficient killing prisoners.
He simply tossed them into open air pens without food water or shelter.
Most died within days.
And to make it even more just?
Allied war criminals regularly fired automatic weapons into the pens, or occasionally would just mow pows down with bulldozers.
The Americans were gross war criminals just like the Soviets were.
I spit on the graves of our stupid dead soldiers who through away their lives so that Anerica coukd be taken over by the chewish faggots who let the gates open on purpose.
Look familiar, Joe?
This could easily have been an errant Russian munition.
During war?
They probably have a very strong motive to lie when friendly fire events happen.
They probably bombed their own people to make the hohols look bad, just like the way Israel did to justify genociding Palestine.
I’m not really seeing any motive. For either side.
I will take Russia seriously when it bombs the runway that launched the US recon drone.
I might take them seriously if they even destroyed Ukrainian airfields.
