Missile strikes Indian Pharma firm in Kyiv, Russia’s deliberate move, says Ukraine

KYIV: Russia launched a missile attack on the warehouse of an Indian pharmaceutical company located in the Ukrainian capital, Kiev. Ukraine itself has released information related to the attack. The company was attacked early this morning. The company's warehouse has been completely destroyed in the incident. The attack was towards the company Kusum, owned by Indian businessman Rajiv Gupta. Kusum is one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in Ukraine.

Ukraine's embassy also alleged that the attack was aimed at Indian industry in Ukraine. Ukraine alleged that Russia's attack on the company is deliberate. Ukraine alleges that Moscow is targeting Indian industry while claiming special friendship with India and is destroying medicines for children and adults. Kusum is a company that ensures the availability of all medicines across the country.

British Ambassador to Ukraine Martin Harris responded to the attack. He responded via X that Russia had destroyed the warehouse of a major pharmaceutical company in Kyiv and that Russian drones had carried out the attack. He wrote in the post that Russia's attacks on Ukrainian citizens were continuing.

The Russian Defense Ministry has also accused Ukraine of carrying out five attacks on some Russian energy facilities recently. Russia reminded that such attacks are also a violation of the US-brokered moratorium. Although India has called for an end to the clashes and peace between the two countries, this has not happened.
