The Russian government has accused the United States of masterminding the assassination attempt of President Vladimir Putin in a drone attack at his official residence in the Kremlin. Two drones were brought down by Russian air defenses in the capital in the early hours of Wednesday morning, the Kremlin said in a statement. Putin was not in residence at the time of the alleged attack.
The last two days have been a back-and-forth of accusations between Ukraine, the U.S., and Russia.
One day later, footage was published online appearing to show one of the drones being shot down over the Kremlin's senate and another showing smoke billowing from the building. Moscow would then go on to accuse the U.S. of aiding Ukraine in the attack.
