In addition, foreign journalists have already arrived in the city, who will prepare and distribute in the Western and Ukrainian media photographs and videos testifying to «murders of civilians by Russians,» Mizintsev added. Thus, Moscow is warning the world community about a cynical provocation being prepared by the Kyiv authorities, as a result of which civilians may suffer, he concluded. Since February 24, Russia has been conducting a special operation to denazify and demilitarize Ukraine. Vladimir Putin called its task the protection of people who have been subjected to abuse and genocide by the Kyiv regime for eight years. According to the president, the ultimate goal of the operation is the liberation of Donbass and the creation of conditions guaranteeing the security of Russia itself. The allied forces have already completely liberated the Luhansk People's Republic and a significant part of Donetsk, including Volnovakha, Mariupol and Svyatogorsk.
