The Ministry of Defense in Moscow announced that hundreds of Ukrainian soldiers were killed in an attack on soldiers' residences in the city of Kramatorsk • An investigation carried out by the Reuters news agency revealed that a Russian attack was indeed carried out at the site but no one was injured


A lesson in propaganda: The Russian Ministry of Defense announced today a fatal attack on the quarters of Ukrainian soldiers, this as revenge for the Ukrainian attack on New Year's Eve that resulted in the death of at least 89 Russian soldiers, but an investigation conducted by the Reuters news agency proved that this was fake news. 

A Reuters reporter who arrived at the site that was attacked, according to the Russian Ministry of Defense, found that some material damage had been caused to the site, apparently from a Russian attack, but did not find any evidence of harm to any soul or even that soldiers from the Ukrainian army were there. 

According to the news agency's report, the mentioned site was used as a residence for students in the city of Kramatorsk and no evidence of soldiers' residences was found there.

It was also reported that the Ukrainian army authorized reporters to reach the site, which apparently is indeed in the possession of the army, but is not used for soldiers' quarters.

The Russian Ministry of Defense announced that 600 Ukrainian soldiers were killed or injured in an attack on Kramatorsk that was intended to be revenge for the Ukrainian attack that resulted in the death of between 89 and 400 Russian soldiers in the town of Makivka near the city of Donetsk.

According to reports revealed today, most of the Russian soldiers who were injured gathered in the bull house that was attacked in order to watch the speech of the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, in honor of the New Year. 

Meanwhile, temperatures in Ukraine have dropped well below zero over the past two days, which will freeze the ground and create better conditions for armored attacks from both sides.

As a result, the fighting near the town of Hammot escalated significantly in the last two days and the Russian army managed to break through the Ukrainian defenses in the town of Soldar, heavy fighting is going on there.
