Moscow Disputes Kyiv's Claims with Drone Attack Video
Share via WhatsApp
Russia has responded to accusations of a failed drone attack targeting President Vladimir Putin’s residence by releasing video footage it claims depicts the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) used in the incident. The released material aims to counter Kyiv’s vehement denials of responsibility.
The Kremlin alleges the drone was intended to assassinate President Putin, characterizing the incident as a terrorist act and a planned escalation by Ukraine. Ukrainian officials have dismissed the accusations as a false flag operation designed to justify further aggression. President Zelenskyy has accused Russia of attempting to disrupt ongoing peace negotiations through disinformation.
International reactions have been varied. Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India expressed concern, while former US President Donald Trump reportedly voiced anger over the alleged attack. Zelenskyy has criticized some nations for expressing concern over an alleged attack on Putin while continuing to question attacks on Ukraine. The incident has heightened tensions between the two nations and casts a shadow over prospects for de-escalation.
