Lavrov: Russia has requested an urgent meeting of the UN Security Council due to the attack on Il-76
Russia has requested an urgent meeting of the UN Security Council in connection with the crash of a Russian Il-76 over the Belgorod region. This was stated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov at a press conference on the sidelines of the UN in New York.
The diplomat also called the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ attack on the Il-76, which had Ukrainian prisoners of war on board, a terrorist attack.
The exchange of prisoners between the Russian Federation and Ukraine was agreed upon, but instead Kyiv struck an Il-76 plane, the minister emphasized.
Earlier in the Verkhovna Rada attacked the president Vladimir Zelensky because of the downed Il-76 plane.
