Russia has accused Ukraine of attempting to assassinate Vladimir Putin in a double drone strike on the Kremlin overnight.
Moscow said it had foiled the attempt and furiously decried the attack as ‘a planned terrorist act and an attempt on the life of the President of the Russian Federation.’
Ukraine quickly responded to the accusation – the most dramatic Russia has levelled against Kyiv since invading its neighbour more than 14 months ago – saying it has ‘nothing to do’ with the alleged attack.
