MOSCOW, April 8. /TASS/. Russian Defense Ministry Spokesman Igor Konashenkov on Friday said an examination of the area damaged by the warhead and the position of the tail of the Tochka-U missile in Kramatorsk confirmed that it was fired from an area controlled by the armed forces of Ukraine.

"An examination of the area damaged by the warhead and the position of the tail segment of the Tochka-U missile confirm without a doubt that it was fired from an area to the southwest of Kramatorsk," he said. "According to intelligence data, one of the units of the 19th missile brigade, which is armed with Tochka-U missile systems, was located in the area of the Dobropolye settlement of the Donetsk Region 45 kilometers to the southwest of Kramatorsk at the time of the strike."

"That area is for now fully controlled by a grouping of Ukrainian forces in Donbass," he went on to say.

Konashenkov said Tochka-U tactical missiles are utilized only by Ukrainian forces.

Ukraine’s armed forces today used a Tochka-U tactical missile to strike a railway station in Kramatorsk, killing at least 50 people and wounding about 100 people.
