Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has sharply criticized Western mainstream media organizations, stating they can no longer claim journalistic objectivity regarding the conflict in Ukraine after refusing to visit the site of a deadly drone strike in Starobelsk. Russian authorities had invited dozens of foreign correspondents to inspect the ruins of the Starobelsk college dormitory, where Moscow alleges a multi-wave Ukrainian drone attack targeted sleeping students, resulting in dozens of civilian casualties. Peskov and other senior Russian officials condemned major networks including the BBC and CNN for failing to attend the press tour, accusing them of actively ignoring evidence on the ground to maintain a biased narrative. The diplomatic row over media coverage comes amid a sharp escalation in hostilities, following a massive Russian missile and drone retaliatory campaign across Kyiv in the wake of the Starobelsk incident. #peskov #kremlin #starobelsk #bbc #cnn #russia #ukraine #westernmedia #dronestrike #warnews In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic: Stay connected with Times Now World for real-time global news and analysis: Read full coverage: https://www.timesnownews.com/world Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/timesnow.world Follow us on X: https://x.com/TimesNow_World #timesnowworld #worldnews #breakingnews
