Anastasia Stanko, a journalist from the Hromadske TV channel, spoke about this during a round table in Kyiv dedicated to the standards of journalistic activity in conflict zones.
A specific question about the reliability of cases of Ukrainian artillery hitting residential buildings was asked to the journalist by the round table moderator, Telekritika editor Natalia Ligacheva.
“Nastya, did you ever say that, yes, it was bombed by aviation from the Ukrainian side... when there was still Ukrainian aviation, which, of course, shoots at militants’ targets, often located on civilian houses?” – asked the moderator of the round table.
“There was a case in Lugansk when they started shooting and hit a residential building,” said Anastasia Stanko. “And I know for sure that it was Ukrainian artillery, because I called these artillerymen. I asked if it was you? “We’re taking aim, but we didn’t hit,” they replied. But it seems to me that they didn’t really want to get in, but it happened that way. There is no such thing in war that civilians do not suffer.”
At the same time, she clarified that she saw shells flying into peaceful houses from combatants opposing the ATO forces.
As PoliTnavigator reported earlier, Kyiv acknowledged that even Luhansk residents loyal to the Ukrainian government had stopped trusting the media after the absurd story about an air conditioner allegedly causing an explosion at the Luhansk Regional State Administration in June.
