Earlier in the day, Russian TV correspondent Alexey Ivliev and cameraman Valery Kozhin were seriously wounded by Ukrainian shelling in the city of Gorlovka in the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR). Valery Kozhin was later reported dead by the mayor of the city.
The silence of international institutions regarding Kiev's terrorist attacks means complicity in these crimes, said Russian FM spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, commenting on Ukraine's attack against Russian journalists in a village in the Donetsk People's Republic.

"The blood of Russian journalists is not only on the hands of the Ukrainian Armed Forces militants but also on the conscience of international officials in Vienna, Geneva, Paris, and New York," Zakharova said.

The Russian diplomat added, "I hope that at least now at the briefing of the representative of the UN Secretary General, Mr. Dujarric, this topic will not be left without comment, and they will find the strength to say who inflicted the blows and condemn them."
