Mainstream outlets could not even offer a plausible excuse for not visiting the college dorm destroyed by Kiev, Yana Lantratova has said<\/strong><\/p>\n

Western mainstream media are \u201cafraid to see the truth\u201d<\/em> about the Ukrainian attack on the Starobelsk college dorm, Russia\u2019s newly appointed human rights commissioner, Yana Lantratova, has said, slamming the incident as a \u201cdeliberate murder of children.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The attack on the dorm, staged overnight from Thursday to Friday, left at least 21 people dead, mainly teenage girls. The massacre has been largely ignored by the Western media and politicians, and Moscow has urged foreign reporters to come to the site.<\/p>\n

The Russian Foreign Ministry arranged the media trip to Starobelsk on Sunday, with more than 50 reporters from 19 nations accepting the invitation. Speaking to the journalists at the location of the attack, Lantratova slammed those Western outlets that ignored the opportunity to report first-hand from the site.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a deliberate murder of children. That\u2019s what it\u2019s called. And what are we seeing now? What\u2019s happening on foreign platforms? Representatives from various countries are saying it is staged, that it\u2019s a lie from the Russian media, and that \u2018independent\u2019 media could not confirm it because they could not come here,\u201d<\/em> she said, adding that some outlets did not even offer a \u201cplausible explanation\u201d<\/em> for skipping the opportunity.<\/p>\n

Where\u2019s the BBC? Where\u2019s CNN? Where are the Tokyo representatives? Where are their journalists? \u2026 They\u2019re simply afraid to see the truth. They don\u2019t want to see it and they don\u2019t want to hear it.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

International journalists visit site of Ukrainian drone attack atrocity (VIDEO)<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/blockquote>\n

On Saturday, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that both the BBC and CNN rejected the invitation to visit Starobelsk, while the Japanese government explicitly banned reporters from making the trip.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The attack on Starobelsk prompted a large-scale retaliatory strike on the Ukrainian capital city of Kiev, which was conducted overnight. The strike featured the intermediate-range hypersonic Oreshnik system, as well as other ballistic and cruise missiles. The command centers of the Ukrainian ground forces and military intelligence were targeted, as well as air bases and defense industry sites, according to the Russian military.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
