Escalating Moscow-Kyiv Clash over 'Attack' on Putin's Residence

The clash between Moscow and Kyiv is escalating following statements by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov regarding an alleged Ukrainian attack on Vladimir Putin's residence. Russia accuses Ukraine of the attack and states it will be held accountable for its actions, while the Ukrainian Foreign Minister dismisses the accusations as “manipulations” and an attempt to create false pretexts for further attacks. Russia claims that former US President Donald Trump was “shocked and outraged” by the attack. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy called the Russian accusations “false” and discussed the matter with the German Chancellor.
