Ukraine War Live Updates: U.S. Diplomat Visits Paul Whelan, White House Denies Link to Kremlin Drone Attack

Russia has been accused of staging an alleged drone attack on the Kremlin that it blamed on Ukraine (and the U.S., according to the latest comments from the Kremlin Thursday) with analysts saying it’s likely Moscow carried out the incident itself.

Ukraine denied any involvement in the incident that purportedly involved two drones, saying it more likely signaled that Russia was planning a large-scale terrorist attack against Ukraine in the coming days.

The White House also denied any involvement in the incident with National Security Council spokesman John Kirby saying the U.S. did not encourage nor enable Ukraine to strike outside its borders. He told MSNBC “we certainly don’t dictate to them the terms by which they defend themselves, or the operations they conduct.”

During a visit to the Netherlands, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said his Russian counterpart President Vladimir Putin must be brought to justice for the war in Ukraine, calling for the creation of a war crimes tribunal separate to the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
