British and US TV news crews refused to report on the Ukrainian attack on a high school in Starobelsk in the Lugansk People’s Republic because they do not want the truth to emerge, Senator Alexey Pushkov believes.
"The motives are clear: To go is to show. To show is to speak truth," Pushkov said.
"But Western TV channels have long forgotten how – not just on Ukraine," he added.
The Russian Foreign Ministry has arranged for foreign journalists to visit the site of the deadly Ukrainian attack on a high school in the Lugansk People's Republic, spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said earlier.
The Russian Investigative Committee said Ukraine attacked Starobelsk overnight on Friday with four fixed-wing drones.
At the time of the attack, 86 students and one staff member were inside the dormitory.
The death toll from the attack has now reached 18, the Emergency Situations Ministry said.
