Last June, Antonov criticized the war and airstrikes in Kyiv as Russian “terrorists” hit Ukrainian civilians.
Commenting on a Russian missile strike, he said: “A girl was pulled out from under the rubble, the girl’s father is dead. The mother is trapped under a slab and they are trying to extricate her with a crane. To tell the truth, this can only be described as horror.”
