Monday’s strikes against facilities in Ukraine were to a certain extent a response to the attack in Sevastopol, Russian President Vladimir Putin told reporters on Monday, TASS reports.
"To a certain extent, this is how it is," he said, when asked whether the attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure could be seen as a response to the terror attack in Sevastopol.
"But that is not all we can do," Putin added.
On Saturday, the Russian Defense Ministry said that Russia was suspending its participation in the grain deal after the terrorist attack in Sevastopol, which was carried out by the Kiev regime with the participation of British specialists against the Black Sea Fleet and the commercial vessels involved in ensuring security of the grain corridor. Earlier, the Defense Ministry said that the Kiev regime had carried out a terrorist attack using nine drones and seven marine autonomous surface vehicles. All of them were destroyed.
