Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky says Russia has committed another “war crime” with its latest missile attack on the Kramatorsk train station.

Zelensky said everyone who had a hand in the attack  that killed dozens of civilians, including children, women and elderly must be held accountable.

“This is another war crime of Russia, for which everyone involved will be held accountable,” Zelensky said in his address on Friday.

He disclosed that Russian State propaganda tried to pin the devastating attack on Ukrainian forces, adding that nothing short of decisive and strong response is expected from the world.

He noted that attack on Kramatorsk train station and many other similar onslaughts on civilians and civilian infrastructure must be part of the charges at the tribunal, which he says is inevitable.

“We expect a firm, global response to this war crime.” he said

“Like the massacres in Bucha, as well as many other Russian war crimes, the missile strike on Kramatorsk must be one of the charges at the tribunal, which is bound to happen.”

“All the efforts of the world will be directed to establish minute-by-minute who did what, who gave orders, where did the rocket come from, who was carrying it, who gave the order and how the strike was coordinated.”

“Responsibility is inevitable,” he said.

Meanwhile, the UN Secretary-General, António Guterres, has already condemned the reported Russian missile attack on the Kramatorsk train station.
