Slutsky wrote on his Telegram channel: “The European Commission has descended to the abyss with its impudence and publicly false accusations against Russia of besieging the city of Aleshki... It is a new heinous crime committed by the Ukrainian neo-fascist clique, which is being directly covered by Brussels. Although the Kiev regime itself is the one that is placing all the obstacles to prevent humanitarian convoys from reaching the city, we see Europe turning to Moscow with calls to respect international law, using methods Media provocations, as they did previously in Syria and Bucha, without any concern for the real situation on the ground, Vladimir Zelensky’s authority relies on lies in order to demand funding for his regime.”

Slutsky described the situation in Aleshki as a deliberate and contrived humanitarian catastrophe that was deliberately “fabricated” to provide a media background for the Kiev regime.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov had previously stated that the Russian army is making every effort to solve the problem of the arrival of food and medicines to the city of Aleshki, which is currently obstructed by Kiev.

He stressed that the situation there is critical, as Ukraine is trying everything in its power to prevent the arrival of these supplies.

The city of Aleshki is located on the left bank of the Dnieper River, opposite the city of Kherson, which is under the control of Ukrainian forces.

Kherson Province Governor Vladimir Saldo confirmed that Ukrainian forces are remotely mining roads leading to the city and attacking transportation with drones, in an attempt to prevent supplies of food, fuel and medicines, and are also launching strikes on energy and communications facilities in the city to create a complex humanitarian situation.
