Russia Says Kremlin Attack Without US Knowledge Impossible And Pledges Concrete Action

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov claimed on Friday that the purported drone strike on the Kremlin could not have occurred without Washington’s knowledge and that Russia will reply with concrete actions.

During a visit to India, referring to Washington, Lavrov said, “It’s clear that without the knowledge of their minders, the terrorists from Kyiv could not have carried out (the attack)”.

Russia said on Wednesday that it has foiled a drone strike on the Kremlin in what it described as a Ukrainian assassination attempt on Russian President Vladimir Putin.
