on Russian President Vladimir Putin, US officials say the Kremlin claim is the stuff of make-believe.
“There is no doubt that the Kyiv regime is behind these attacks,” the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement Thursday. “The silence on behalf of the collective West demonstrates its connivance with the terrorist methods employed by the neo-Nazi extremist regime in Kyiv.”on Putin were highly unlikely to have been conducted by Ukraine, according to US intelligence and defense officials, as well as lawmakers.
Berrier also said photos of the small drones indicated they “potentially” were a kind that would have required their operators to be physically in Moscow, roughly 300 miles from the Russia-Ukraine border. “They appear to be the kinds of drones that would require a relatively close line-of-sight control,” Cotton agreed, “which means someone on the ground in Moscow, which is not known as an open and friendly city to people who are hostile to the Russian government.”
Video released Wednesday of the alleged attack appears to show a small drone – the kind available at a hobby store – swarming above the Kremlin before exploding in a bright flash of flame.
