Russia-Ukraine War / Russia attacks Indian company in Ukraine! What is the truth behind the viral post

Amid the Russia-Ukraine war, a missile attack on the warehouse of Indian pharmaceutical company Kusum Healthcare in Kiev caused a fire. Russia was accused, but the Russian embassy denied it. It is not clear whether the attack was a missile or a drone. There has been no loss of life, but diplomatic tension has increased.

Russia-Ukraine War: The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine has taken another worrying turn. Recently, a missile attack took place on the warehouse of Indian pharma company Kusum Healthcare located in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv, which caused a fire and the entire building was burnt to ashes. This incident has not only raised questions about foreign investment and business stability in Ukraine, but has also brought the relations between India, Russia and Ukraine to a tense turn.

Allegation of attack and Russia's response

Ukrainian officials blamed Russia for the attack. However, the Russian Embassy in New Delhi has completely rejected these allegations and termed it as "fake news". The embassy said that the Russian armed forces did not attack the warehouse of Kusum Healthcare located in the eastern part of Kyiv on April 12, 2025, nor was there any such intention.

Russia clarified that the target of their military operation that day were Ukrainian military industrial infrastructure such as aircraft plants, military airfields and assembly workshops. Russia also claims that they do not target civilian targets during special military operations.

Ukrainian missile misfire suspected

A report from Moscow said that the attack could be the result of a "misfire" of a Ukrainian missile. Such incidents have happened before, when missiles deviated from the target due to technical failures of Ukrainian defense systems. However, this claim could not be independently confirmed.

Missile or drone attack? Situation not clear

The situation is not completely clear about this attack so far. Some reports are calling it a missile attack, while some believe that it was a drone strike. Kusum Healthcare, which is considered one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in Ukraine, has suffered heavy losses in this attack. It is a matter of relief that there was no loss of life in this accident.

India's role and concerns

This attack on the Indian pharmaceutical company has also worried India. The Indian government is vigilant about the safety of Indian investors and citizens in Ukraine. The incident has put relations between the three countries to a new test — especially since India maintains diplomatic and business ties with both Russia and Ukraine.
