Satellite images of the facility released by Maxar Technologies show damage to only part of the pre-trial detention center that houses Ukrainian prisoners.
American-made HIMARS rocket launchers were not used in the attack on the pre-trial detention center in Yelenovka, Donetsk region. On Monday, August 1, Politico reports citing an American official who wished to remain anonymous.
“We know that Ukraine did not attack the building with HIMARS, because the building had no signs that it would have if it had been hit by HIMARS,” he said.
Another official in a comment to the publication said that there is evidence that the attack was not carried out by Kyiv.
Politico recalled that satellite images of the facility released by Maxar Technologies on July 30 showed damage to only part of the pre-trial detention center that held Ukrainian prisoners, with no collateral damage to surrounding buildings. .
It will be recalled that the US Ambassador to Ukraine, Bridget Brink, called the shelling of the colony in Yelenovka, Donetsk region, and the reports of barbaric treatment by Ukrainian prisoners of Russian prisoners unacceptable.
In turn, the Prosecutor General of Ukraine, Andriy Kostin, said that the Russian invaders fired at the colony in Yelenovka, where the Russian army kept the Ukrainian military, not with missiles, but with thermobaric weapons.
