Podolyak: Drones crashing around Russia signal internal ‘panic and decay.’ Peskov: ‘We don’t believe him.’
Following a series of isolated drone strikes around Russia on February 27–28, Mykhailo Podolyak, publicity advisor to the Zelensky administration, tweeted that Ukraine has nothing to do with these incidents, since it’s only defending its own territory in the war with Russia.
A day earlier, a number of UAVs crashed near the petroleum and natural-gas facilities in several Russian regions, including the greater Moscow, Adygea, and Krasnodar Krai.
Podolyak explained those incidents as a result of the “escalating panic and decay, which manifest in the increasing internal attacks” on Russia’s infrastructure facilities.
When invited to comment on the Ukrainian official’s statement, the Kremlin Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov said: “We don’t believe him.”
