The Russian Defense Ministry reported the alleged downing of four ATACMS missiles over Crimea, writes UNN.

"During the repelling of a terrorist attack by the air defense forces on duty, four American ATACMS missiles were shot down," the Russians said.

According to them, due to the action of air defense systems, one of the missiles changed its flight path and was destroyed in the air over the city. As a result, more than 20 civilians, including children, were injured by falling fragments of cluster munitions.
