Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said the photos of the bodies of civilians in Bucha were "commissioned" by the United States, as part of a plot to charge Moscow. She said in an interview with a Russian TV channel that the US and NATO are "experts in provocations." "The fact that the statements about Russia were published in the first minutes after the publication of the documentation leaves no room for doubt as to the 'commissioning' of this story," Zakharova added, as reported by Reuters.
