OREANDA-NEWS. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov called a fake video in which the Russian military allegedly killed civilians in the Ukrainian Bucha, TASS reports.

“The other day, another fake attack was launched in the city of Bucha, Kiev region, after Russian military personnel left in accordance with the plans and agreements reached. A few days later, a staging was staged there, which is dispersed through all channels and social networks by Ukrainian representatives and their Western patrons, ”Lavrov said during a meeting with UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Martin Griffiths.

Earlier, the Ukrainian authorities and a number of foreign media disseminated information about the massacres of civilians in Bucha, allegedly by the Russian military. In response, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said that the replicated video frames and photos from Bucha, as well as the subsequent statements by the West, are "custom-made history."

The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation called Kyiv's accusations against the Russian military "another provocation", and photos and videos from Bucha - "another production of the Kiev regime for the Western media."

On April 4, the head of the Investigative Committee of Russia Alexander Bastrykin instructed to give a procedural assessment of the video about the "murder of civilians" in the city of Bucha in the Kiev region.
