Putin: Attack on Belgorod Was Terrorist Act
Ukraine shelled the central part of Belgorod on Saturday afternoon. The Russian Defense Ministry said Czech-made Vampire rockets and missiles with cluster munitions were fired at the city.
What happened in
Belgorod was a terrorist act, it was a targeted attack on the civilian population, Russian President Vladimir Putin has said.
"What has happened now in Belgorod is undoubtedly a terrorist act. Why, because under the cover of two Alder missiles, I think what they did, they struck using multiple rocket launchers. An MLRS, you military people know, is a weapon that hits areas, and with this weapon they struck right in the center of the city, where people were walking, before New Year's Eve," Putin said at a meeting with participants of the special military operation on Monday.
He said it was a "targeted attack on the civilian population."
"Of course, this is a terrorist act, you can't call it anything else," the Russian president stressed.
