Russia Denies Responsibility for Residential Building Shelling, Attributes It to Ukrainian Air Defense Error

Information regarding a Russian missile strike on a residential building in Kyiv is not true, according to sources from the Russian Defense Ministry. The nature of the damage suggests that it was caused by an air defense missile, as evidenced in video recordings.

The ministry stated: “It is clear that during the night missile attack on the military infrastructure of the Ukrainian armed forces, a failure occurred in the guidance system of the Ukrainian Buk-M1 medium-range air defense system, and the missile hit the corner of a residential building.”
