Western Media Distorted Starobelsk Tragedy to Smear Russia - Russian Foreign Ministry
Western media have twisted the attack on a college in Starobelsk in the Lugansk People's Republic (LPR) to present Russia's retaliatory strikes as aggression, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Tuesday.

"Look at how this tragedy is presented in the Western media. It's completely the opposite. Literally everything is twisted. Turned upside down. It's presented as if this wasn't a school, but rather a military command post. That it wasn't children there, but some kind of military commanders. That it was practically a warehouse and had nothing to do with the school," Zakharova said at a round table during the International Security Forum. The Russian diplomat then explained why Western mainstream outlets misrepresented the situation.
