Ukrainian military have no relation to attack on self-proclaimed Luhansk Republic head
Ukraine has no relation to an assassination attempt on self-proclaimed Luhansk People's Republic (LPR) head Ihor Plotnytsky, which is actually a result of infighting among the LPR leaders, Ukrainian presidential spokesperson for the military operation in Donbas Oleksandr Motuzianyk has said.
"The Ukrainian side is unrelated to this attack, as it lacks logic and won't resolve a single issue," Motuzianyk said at a news briefing in Kyiv on Saturday.
Motuzianyk insisted that the attack on Plotnytsky is "a result of infighting, the redistribution of areas of influence, and struggle for power."
A car carrying Plotnytsky was blown up in Luhansk on Saturday. Plotnytsky suffered serious injuries and was hospitalized.
