MOSCOW - A Russian war reporter was killed and three were wounded on Saturday in what Moscow alleged was a Ukrainian attackThe defence ministry said the wounded journalists were evacuated from the battlefield after coming under fire in Ukraine’s southeastern Zaporizhzhia region.The ministry did not provide evidence that Ukraine had used cluster munitions in the incident, and Reuters was not able to verify the assertion.
Many countries ban the weapons because they disperse bomblets that rain shrapnel over a wide area and can pose a risk to civilians. Some typically fail to explode immediately, but can blow up years later. Their reactions ignored the fact that Russia’s own use of cluster bombs in the war has been documented by human rights groups and by the UN.
