New Delhi:The Ukrainian Embassy in India said a Russian missile hit the warehouse of Kusum, an Indian pharmaceutical company in Ukraine. It said in an article on X: “While claiming a ‘special friendship’ with India, Moscow deliberately targets Indian businesses, undermining drugs targeting children and the elderly.”
There are no more details about the strike.
Kusum Healthcare said on its website that it exists in 29 countries, including Ukraine.
Earlier, British ambassador to Ukraine, Martin Harris said that a Russian strike destroyed a major pharmaceutical warehouse in Kiev.
He said the attack was carried out by Russian drones.
“This morning, Russian drones completely destroyed a major drug warehouse in Kiev, incinerating the medicines needed by the elderly and children. Russia’s terror campaign against Ukrainian civilians continues,” Harris said on X.
Other forces of Kusum are in Moldova, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan Kenya, Ivory Coast, Benin, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Niger, Cameroon, Mali and Tanzania.
Over the past few days, Russia has slammed several targets in Ukraine despite the US ceasefire between Christianity and Moscow.
U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in St. Petersburg on Friday to discuss a ceasefire in Ukraine.
Saturday happened to be a month since Russia refused to accept a full temporary ceasefire proposed by the United States.
When Russia attacked Ukraine, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha claimed that Russia was “the only obstacle to peace.”
Sybiha refers to the U.S. peace talks in Jeddah, who said Ukraine agreed to a ceasefire proposal.
“Russia refuses to agree, but puts forward conditions and needs,” he said.
