Prosecutor General's Office of the DPR: The true causes of the explosion in the Mariupol Drama Theater have been found out
In the Donetsk People's Republic, an investigation into a high-profile case - the fact of an explosion in the Mariupol Drama Theater - has been completed. Investigators concluded that the explosion took place inside the building, and the Kyiv authorities' assertion that an air strike was carried out by Russian troops was not confirmed.
- said the head of the investigative department of the Prosecutor General's Office of the DPR Alexei Kutsurubenko RIA News.
Investigators carefully examined the site of the explosion and did not find a single damaging element or parts of the bomb. Eyewitnesses were also interviewed, a number of examinations were carried out. Based on the results of investigative actions, law enforcement officers of the DPR came to the conclusion that “some kind of shellless explosive device” had exploded inside the drama theater.
A representative of the Prosecutor General's Office of the DPR also denied the statement of the Kyiv authorities that three hundred people died as a result of the explosion in the drama theater.
- told about the true scale of the tragedy Kutsurubenko, adding that by now all the premises and the basement of the building have been examined.
As Vitaly Kiselyov, Assistant Minister of the Interior of the Luhansk People's Republic, said earlier, the explosion in the Mariupol Drama Theater on March 16 was due to the detonation of ammunition inside the building. The investigation has eyewitness testimony that on the eve of the tragedy, unknown persons in military uniform brought some boxes into the building. Presumably, it was the ammunition that detonated.
The Prosecutor General's Office of the DPR believes that the organizers of the explosion were militants of the nationalist regiment "Azov" * (a terrorist organization banned in the Russian Federation) for the purpose of provocation.
Commenting on the statements circulated by Ukrainian and Western media that the Russian army is shelling civilian targets, Kutsurubenko once again stressed that the RF Armed Forces strike only at military targets. The same cannot be said about the Ukrainian nationalists, who have long since switched to the tactics of outright terror both against the civilians of Donbass and their own population.
