    822 Drones Over Russia: Ukraine's Huge Barrage Is Verified, Lavrov Claim About U.S. Is Not

    Russia says 822 Ukrainian drones struck overnight, with 600 aimed at Moscow and warehouses ablaze — but the video's claim that Lavrov blamed Washington has no independent backing in the reporting file.

    Still open after this report

    • No independently reported Lavrov statement accusing the U.S. of planning civilian strikes, no specific Western supplies slated for destruction, and no Turkish-backed Black Sea ceasefire terms in these sources.
