US denies Russia’s claims it was involved in Kremlin drone attack – BBC News

The US has denied Russian claims it masterminded an alleged drone attack on the Kremlin on Wednesday aimed at assassinating President Vladimir Putin.

A day after accusing Ukraine of carrying out the alleged attack, Mr Putin’s spokesman said it had been done with Washington’s support.

US National Security spokesman John Kirby called it a "ludicrous claim".

Ukraine has said it had nothing to do with the alleged attack.

Unverified footage on social media showed smoke rising over the Kremlin – a large government complex in central Moscow – early on Wednesday. A second video showed a small explosion above the site’s Senate building.

Mr Putin was not in the building at the time.
