The Russian Defense Minister confirmed Kyiv’s preparedness to provoke by using a “dirty bomb” during phone conversations with NATO members, but Ukrainian President Foludmir Zellinski dismissed the claims on Sunday.
“If Russia claims that Ukraine is planning for anything, it only means that Russia has already made all of the necessary preparations. I believe that the world should react as harshly as possible “Posted on social media by Zellinski.
Zelinski made his remarks after his secretary of state, Demotto Couliba, termed the Russian defence minister’s allegations as serious.
Coliba said Russia is lying about planning to use Kyiv, “a dirty bomb”, in reference to the low -power nuclear weapon, or perhaps the possibility of hitting a water dam in Jeuceon that may flood the city as a whole, in order to blame the Russian forces.
Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigo had a phone conversation with his French counterpart Sebastian Lecorno, expressing his conviction that the Ukrainian authorities are steadfastly tending to further uncontrolled escalation, according to Sputnik.
Shwigo also forewarned of any Ukrainian aggression and mentioned the “dirty bomb” in separate conversations with his British colleague Ben Wallace and Turkish counterpart Khulusi Akar.
These declarations followed the Novosti agency citing credible sources in many nations, including Ukraine, who claimed that “there are indications of preparation Kyiv provocating by employing a dirty bomb or low-strength nuclear weapons.”
It is noteworthy that since the beginning of the Russian military operation on Ukrainian territory on February 24, concerns about the conflict and its escalation have increased to unbelievable heights, particularly after Russian President Vladimir Putin hinted at the possibility of using the atomic bomb in a speech broadcast on September 21.
Zelinski denies Russia’s allegations of a “dirty bomb” and urges a severe response.
