Quote by Maliuk: "Currently, the employees of the Service are working to establish all the facts and the specific perpetrators of the missile strikes. Missile fragments and other material evidence found at the sites of the strikes have already been sent for examinations." Details: The SSU said that servicemen from the 184th Heavy Bomber Aviation Regiment of the Russian Federation, which is part of the 22nd Guards Heavy Bomber Aviation Division, were probably involved in the attacks.
The SSU is also checking the theory that the 52nd Guards Heavy Bomber Aviation Regiment of the Russian Federation participated in the attacks.
SSU investigators are working to name the perpetrators of these crimes and establish the identity of individuals who ordered the airstrikes. The SSU opened a total of 17 criminal proceedings concerning the large-scale missile attacks on Ukraine on 15 November (Article 438.1 of the Criminal Code; violation of the laws and customs of war). The information on these cases will be added to the evidence base that Ukraine is collecting to submit to international courts.
