The African delegation stated russian shelling of Kyiv was “disinformation and untruth”

The South African delegation stated that today’s shelling of Kyiv is “disinformation and untruth”.

A delegation from South Africa, led by President Cyril Ramaphosa, who arrived in Kyiv to meet with President Volodymyr Zelensky to discuss their vision of a peace plan for Ukraine, denied the Russian missile attack, which was carried out just as it arrived in the Ukrainian capital. This is reported by the South African information portal news24.

Ramaphosa’s aide Vincent Magwenya confirmed his version by saying that Kyiv residents returned to normal life immediately after the air raid alarm ended. In his opinion, if the threat really existed, people would not be able to leavethe shelters so easily and go about their usual business.

“We were all confused when on our way to the hotel we saw people going about their normal day. It is very strange and in some sense it is a deliberate misinformation,” the representative of South Africa emphasized the last word.

To remind, today russian occupiers launched one more massive missile attack on Kyiv and region. 6 Kinzhal missiles, 6 Caliber missiles and 2 drones have been intercepted by the Air Force of Ukraine.

Tomorrow, the delegation plans to go to St. Petersburg for a meeting with Putin.

It is known, that russian forces were launched Caliber missiles from the Black Sea area from the south direction as well as ballistic missiles from the Bryansk region, russia from the north direction.

Massive missile attack from the north and the south, with ballistic and cruise missiles in the middle of the day, while people are at work, children in schools and daycares, terrorists attack civilians.

This missile attack has been going on for 781 th time only at Kyiv alone. During all these attacks we’ve lost as minimum 919 hours and 44 minutes of our valuable live time.

According to official data, the following russian missiles were destroyed over Ukraine this time: 

– 6 “Kinzhal” aeroballistic missiles; 

– 6 Kalibr cruise missiles; 

– 2 reconnaissance UAVs.

Most of the targets were destroyed over Kyiv and the Kyiv Oblast.

But the African delegation is lucky twice.

First, during the russian missile attack the delegation, headed by the South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, visited the city of Bucha, the west Kyiv suburb.

Secondly, the delegation came not to the epicentre of air defence work and saw not the results of filling russian missiles debris.
