U.S.-supplied missiles used in Ukrainian terror attack on Sevastopol

Russian tourists flee as missile fire rains down on packed beach in Sevastopol.

It was a clear and sunny Sunday afternoon on the beaches of Sevastopol on June 23. Dogs ran along the shore. People swam. Children played. Suddenly, the scene turned from picturesque to grotesque

Turns out, the Ukrainian armed forces launched a series of missiles armed with cluster munition warheads at the Sevastopol shore, with no apparent military target. While Russian drones intercepted most of the missiles, one detonated within striking distance of the beachgoers. One woman who was swimming died instantly. Four others were eventually pronounced dead at the scene, including three children. 

Over 120 people were wounded in this brazen Ukrainian fascist act of terror against the Russian people. However, it was the U.S. imperialists who were ultimately responsible for this horror. The U.S. produced and supplied the advanced rocket missile technology and the cluster munition warhead. The blood of those three children and all those killed or wounded in the attack is firmly on the hands of the U.S. 

This is not the first time that the U.S. has enabled Ukraine to strike at Russian civilian populations. For almost a decade, the Ukrainian Armed Forces waged a bloody terror campaign against the Donbas, resulting in the deaths of over 10,000 civilians. 

As the NATO war against Russia flounders and the Ukraine forces retreat across the lines, the fascist forces have resorted to the escalation of terrorist attacks on the Russian civilian population. 

NATO is simply the international military arm of the U.S. ruling class. Every bomb dropped on  Russia is dropped by the U.S. as much as it is by Ukraine. 

No NATO war on Russia! Disband NATO! Solidarity against fascism!
