Colombian leader Gustavo Petro said the country's Foreign Ministry should send a note of protest to Russia after the explosion in Kramatorsk, where three Colombians were among the wounded.

Petro wrote on his Twitter account that Russia "attacked" three defenseless Colombian civilians in violation of war protocols. Colombia's foreign ministry will serve a diplomatic note of protest over the incident.

According to the Colombian victims, who were gathering information in Kramatorsk for their project in support of Ukraine, they were near the site of the explosion and sustained minor injuries.

Earlier, former US intelligence officer Scott Ritter said that the Russian military eliminated American mercenaries advising AFU soldiers in a strike in Kramatorsk.
