The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) has released evidence - satellite images that confirm the shelling of Ukrainian settlements with Russian Grad multiple rocket launchers from Ukrainian territory, an Interfax-Ukraine reporter has said.

SBU Chief Valentyn Nalyvaichenko at a briefing in Kyiv on Wednesday, July 30
demonstrated several satellite images, which, in particular, prove
Russia’s military aggression, illegal movement of weapons, and
saboteurs.

“Russian Grad artillery launchers are deployed on Ukrainian
territory, two kilometers from the border with Russia, and commit
particularly dangerous crimes, killing people,” he said.

When asked whether this means that Russia was firing at settlements
from Ukrainian territory, Nalyvaichenko said: “Exactly. We are
documenting the evidence presented now, as well as evidence in criminal
proceedings – these are war crimes.”

The images were taken in July over Donetsk region, and they serve as evidence.
