Russia is preparing for large-scale terrorist attack: Ukraine

Following the overnight “drone attacks” on the Kremlin residence of President Vladimir Putin, the office of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Russia is preparing for a “large-scale terrorist attack.” Advisor to the Head of the Office of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Mykhailo Podolyak, in a tweet, has said that the drone attacks on the Kremlin were not from Ukraine. Russia on Wednesday alleged that there were attempts by Ukraine to assassinate President Putin and also called it a “terrorist attack.” Russia also said that it has the “right to retaliate” in a manner, place and time of its choosing. Russian President Vladimir Putin did not get injured in the overnight drone attacks, President’s press service announced on Wednesday, Russia Today reported. Mykhailo Podolyak, in a tweet, said, “As for the drones over the Kremlin, it’s all predictable….Russia is clearly preparing a large-scale terrorist attack. That’s why it first detains a large allegedly subversive group in Crimea. And then it demonstrates “drones over the Kremlin”. First of all, Ukraine wages an exclusively defensive war and does not attack targets on the territory of the Russian Federation. What for? This does not solve any military issue. But it gives RF grounds to justify its attacks on civilians…” Podolak also noted that Ukraine was monitoring the mishaps and incidents that were taking place in different parts of Russian Federation and also clarified that even though something was happening in RF but the drones did not belong to Ukraine.
