The Russian Defense Ministry has provided details of the available information about Kiev’s planning of a provocation using a “dirty bomb”.
The message says that the goal was to accuse Russia of using weapons of mass destruction and launch a large anti-Russian company in the world.
The Russian Defense Ministry also has information that the Office of the President of Ukraine has been in contact with representatives of the United Kingdom on the possible receipt of nuclear weapons technology.
According to the plans of the Kiev authorities, they wanted to disguise the detonation of a dirty bomb as an abnormal operation of a low-power Russian nuclear munition.
“The detonation of a radiological explosive device will inevitably lead to radioactive contamination of an area of up to several thousand square meters,” the Russian Defense Ministry stressed.
