Against the background of photos of the destruction caused by Russian troops, they also cited Russians' claims that they are not bombing homes, churches, schools, museums, shops, and evacuation routes.
"Disinformation hides crimes. Record. Remember. Stay aware,” the U.S. embassy urged.
As reported, on February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Russian troops have been shelling and destroying infrastructure and residential areas of Ukrainian cities and villages, using artillery, multiple rocket launchers, and ballistic missiles.
Martial law was imposed and general mobilization was announced in Ukraine. The nation has been repelling Russian invaders.
