The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and European Integration of the Republic of Moldova condemns the Russian missile strike on the Rehabilitation Center for Children in Sergeevka, Odessa region, which belongs to the Moldovan government, on the night of July 1. It considers such actions that claimed the lives of innocent people, including children, are absolutely unjustified, IPN reports.
