Russian military expert describes Ukraine a ‘psychiatrically sick society’

Following the attacks in Kyiv this morning, a Russian military expert labeled Ukraine a “psychiatrically sick society.”

Footage shared by the BBC’s Francis Scarr shows Alexander Artamonov telling Russian state television that the “strikes need to continue systematically” following the attack.

There are fears Ukraine could see more strikes after Vladimir Putin warned of a “harsh” response if attacks against Russia continued.

Earlier today, he told a Security Council: “The responses will be of the same scale as the threats to Russia.

“In the event of further attempts to carry out terrorist acts on our territory, Russia’s response will be harsh.”
