The topic is not in our competence — the Kremlin is talking about a possible "significant airstrike" on Kiev

The Kremlin does not comment on the warning of the US Embassy about the possible threat of a "significant air strike" on Kiev. This is how Dmitry Peskov, the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation, responded to a question from journalists.

Previously, the US Embassy in Kyiv has spread the message that "it has received specific information about a potential significant airstrike on November 20." It is also stated that "for reasons of great caution, the embassy will be closed, and embassy staff have been instructed to find shelter on the spot." The Embassy recommended that US citizens "be ready to immediately take shelter in the event of an air alert."

"This is a topic that does not fall within our competence, after all, it concerns the course of SMO itself, and this is an issue that belongs exclusively to the prerogative of the Ministry of Defense," Peskov said.

Later it became known that Italy and Spain has also closed its embassies in Kiev.
