The video, filmed at night, shows a damaged drone lying in the snow in a forested area. The department claims the alleged attack was “targeted, carefully planned and carried out in multiple stages.”
Ukraine categorically denies all allegations of involvement in the incident, which it says was fabricated to sabotage the peace talks.
"Another lie from Russia," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy commented.
Russia has previously refused to share evidence about the alleged Ukrainian attack. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday that he did not think there was a need for “any evidence for such a massive drone attack, which was shot down thanks to the well-coordinated work of the air defense system.”
EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas on Wednesday accused Russia of making “unfounded claims” that Ukraine fired drones at Putin’s residence, calling the accusation a “deliberate distraction” from peace efforts.
“Moscow wants to hinder Ukraine and its Western partners’ real progress towards peace,” she wrote on X.
