Prosecutor General: the cause of the explosion in Yelenovka was the thermobaric weapon of the Russian Federation

[Vesti] Kostin stressed that the premises were definitely not destroyed by missiles.

The premises of the Yelenovskaya colony, where Ukrainian prisoners of war were kept, were destroyed not by rockets, but by Russian thermobaric weapons. This was stated by the Prosecutor General of Ukraine Andriy Kostin on the air of the telethon.

"The preliminary conclusions of our international experts indicate that thermobaric weapons were the cause of this murder or the method of this murder. These are the preliminary conclusions of several international experts ," the prosecutor general said.

Kostin stressed that this, of course, is not a rocket attack. International experts are sure of this.

"This is also confirmed by the information that the pre-trial investigation bodies are currently working on under the procedural guidance of the prosecutors of the Prosecutor General's Office ," the head of the UCP added.

As for specific individuals, urgent investigative actions have been started, they are ongoing, but this issue is more complex, Kostin noted.

But I want to say again that we already have preliminary conclusions from international experts that this was a consequence of the use of thermobaric weapons, which is used by the aggressor country ," summed up Kostin.
