The Lugansk People’s Republic Prosecutor General’s Office has instituted criminal proceedings over the Tochka-U tactical missile strike at Rovenki by Kiev forces, the PGO press service reported.
Kiev forces used a Tochka-U tactical missile system to deliver a strike Rovenki at 06:40 on August 24. Two people were killed in the attack and damage was caused to the office and shops of a motor transport company, five passenger buses and six trucks, as well as to a room of the local road police department.
“The LPR Prosecutor General sent investigators to the scene with a fact-finding mission. After the inspection, the investigators filed a criminal case under LPR Criminal Code Article 439 (use of banned methods and means of warfare) and Article 440 (genocide),” the PGO said.
The Ukrainian government launched the so-called anti-terrorist operation against Donbass in April 2014. The Donbass peace talks participants have announced ceasefire more than 20 times since the autumn of 2014. Kiev forces regularly violated the truce opening fire with large caliber artillery, mortars and tank guns which were to have been withdrawn from the contact line under the accords. *i*ie
