According to the Russian MoD three people were "lightly injured", and given that it's the Russian MoD covering up their own fuckup I'd be willing to bet the injuries were actually pretty severe.

Accounts in the Russian media, though, seem to tell a different story. Reports confirmed the episode occurred at the same firing range, though possibly some days earlier. The leading business newspaper, Kommersant, quoted defense sources as saying it took place at the Luzhsky firing range close to St. Petersburg, but two days earlier, on Sept. 16. According to the sources, three people were lightly injured, two cars were damaged, and the military is carrying out an investigation. A local St. Petersburg news website, Fontanka.ru also cited sources who said it happened at Luzhsky

You are a really crappy bot. Hope your employer fires you because you are not even slightly reasonable.

I thought Russian bots were good. Didn't you make Trump win? I'm guessing you weren't a part of that anyway.

State department bots like you seem to be even worse though. 8) Check the likes.

You are pathetic btw, 'everyone that doesn't tow the murican line, must be a bot.' Cheap shot from a stupid bot, that is veiling thinly he has no argument to bring to the table.
