Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said, “Let’s see what is actually being prepared. A new provocation is being prepared against Ukrainian nationalists, in particular, the explosion of containers with pesticides at the Azot plant in the city of Severodonetsk in the Luhansk People’s Republic and the detention of more than 1,000 factory workers and local residents living in its underground premises.

And she pointed out in her statement: “According to the Kyiv plan, the explosion of containers containing more than 100 tons of saltpeter and nitric acid will impede the advance of the armed forces of Russia and the forces of the republics of Donbass. Blame Russia for the catastrophe with human casualties, as always.

Zakharova stressed that it is very unfortunate that “the Kyiv regime fabricates such plays at the expense of the lives of its civilians.” And I checked: “But in general, we saw what they did in the city of Bucha, and we saw what they did in Kramatorsk. We are waiting for specific data, a report from the collective West, which directly and indirectly plunged into all this and became an accomplice in the crimes of the Kyiv regime in Bucha and Kramatorsk.
