Russian blow to Lviv: As the attack on September 4 is related to the offensive of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the Donbass, - the expert

As a result of the shelling in Lviv, almost a whole family was killed - three daughters and their mother, a blow came to a residential building. Focus learned where he really tried to kiss the enemy and how this attack was related to the failure of the Kremlin plans. The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation attacked the railway district of Lviv, less than 1. 5 kilometers from the station blocked the traffic, and a fire broke out nearby. The focus found out where the enemy hoped.

On the night of September 4, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation carried out a combined shelling of Ukraine, attacking Lviv. The focus correspondent informed about the first powerful explosions at 4:54. The mayor of Andriy Sadovyi warned the locals about the threat of "Shahamed" and missiles of the type X-47M2 "dagger". At 6:24 it became known that houses near the Main Railway Station had covered fire. The residents of the railway district also flying windows.

More than 50 homes in Lviv were affected during the shelling, and six of them have been resettling. In total, at least seven historical monuments of Lviv, including the Center for Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, were located in the historic building of 1893. The mayor stated that among the victims there are children of 10 and 15 years. Ova said that a 15-year-old child is in a state of moderate. Four more injured children have slight injuries.

Among the dead is a 50-year-old woman who worked as a midwife. According to preliminary data, a 14-year-old girl was killed in Lviv. Subsequently, Sadovyi reported that his mother and three daughters were killed in his own house - only his father remained alive. "In the center of Europe, Russia exterminates Ukrainians with whole families. The Russians kill our children, our future," the mayor emphasized. The attack killed seven people, including one child-7-year-old Emilia.

The oldest killed in Lviv at the time of the attack was 55 years. The number of victims at the time of material publication is 64, eight of them are children. It is known that 15 adults and two children were hospitalized, and five wounded are in serious condition. The head of the Center for Military Legal Research and military expert Oleksandr Musienko in a comment to Focus noted that it was unlikely that the purpose of hostile shelling in Lviv was the railway station.

According to him, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation could have other goals. "It seems to me that the goal was actually to fly as close to the center of Lviv to demonstrate the picture (it is about destruction for psychological pressure and demonstration of force - ed. )," - said the analyst.

The expert recalled the combined attack of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation against Kiev on September 2 and stressed that then Russia also tried to break through the rockets closer to the center of the capital, to the government quarter. According to him, the aggressor country wants to show the destruction of what she is capable of and how to bypass the Ukrainian air defense.

In general, as Musienko explained, the targets of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have recently become objects of energy, areas of civil development and objects of the defense industry. The last choice is due to the fact that the enemy "causes" the effectiveness of Ukrainian drones. "Just now one direction is added - it is educational institutions," he said. The analyst reported that during the shelling of Lviv "dagger" flew "not quite accurately" without hitting it.

However, in general, it has no problems with accuracy, unlike older specimens of Russian rockets. Musienko confirmed the focus that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation were interested in as many casualties as possible. They perceive their rocket strokes in Russia not only through the lens of practical consequences, but also through the lens of psychological terror. According to the expert, the goal of the enemy is to demoralize Ukrainians and to weaken the resistance.

He noted that Russian President Vladimir Putin is trying to press on Ukraine because of its uncompromising. That is, because Kyiv is not conducted on enemy ultimatums and disagree with the disadvantageous agreements imposed by the Kremlin. "On the contrary, the more victims among civilians, the better," the analyst emphasized.

He is convinced that the factor of death of a large number of civilians does not stop the aggressor country, and this is confirmed by strokes on gas storage facilities, in particular on the night of March 24, and an attack on the Kiev hydroelectric power station on August 26. According to Musienko, there are no fuses or barriers in Russia.

He explained that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation attack Ukraine with violations of international law since the beginning of a full -scale war, but these terrorist attacks have certain "coils".

"The present round they try to tie to the fact that, apparently, Russia still considered the scenario that they would succeed in some successful offensive in the Donetsk region, it will be possible to break Ukrainian resistance and somewhere in the end of the year to force Ukraine to sit at a table of negotiations on Russian conditions. Much has gone out of their plan, as it was repeatedly, " - said the expert.

He said that the plans of the enemy were destroyed by the Kursk Operation of the Armed Forces. However, there were discussions in Ukraine against the background of the situation near Pokrovsk on the feasibility of a breakthrough on the territory of the Russian Federation, as well as discussing the F-16 fighter disaster. "They caught this wave, that's this touch, and try to deepen the complications and deterioration of this psychological state in us.
