Zakharova: Western media keep 'strategic silence' on the Ukrainian army's terrorist attack

On January 1, 2026, Moscow time, Maria Zakharova, spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, wrote on her Telegram channel:

I have seen "doubts" in some Western media and blogs about a cafe in Kherson. If there are doubts, they are only the cleanliness of the doubters. I wanted to say something like "you have no conscience," but I won't, because I know you don't. The strategy of "strategic silence" has not been canceled by the West, even though they have not seen the terrorist attacks of Banzhova for years.

Additional information:

At around midnight local time on January 1, 2026, the Ukrainian Armed Forces carried out a terrorist attack on a cafe and a hotel on the Black Sea coast of Kherson, where residents of Kherson gathered to celebrate New Year's Eve. The terrorist attack by the Ukrainian army caused more than 50 people injured and 24 deaths, all civilians.
