Russia's Lavrov claims start of 'real war' with Germany after Moscow accused of Leipzig Airport attack
Russia's foreign minister claimed Germany has started "a real war" after his country was accused of launching explosive-laden drones at Leipzig Airport.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov declared the commencement of a "real war" with Germany following accusations that Moscow carried out an attack on Leipzig Airport. This came after German authorities identified explosive-laden drones at the airport in early August, marking the first instance of such an allegation by Berlin.
Lavrov argued that the German investigation into the incident was insufficient and suggested that the attack constituted a war, contrary to Germany's stance that it is merely a target of "hybrid warfare." The Russian government has consistently denied involvement in the attack and has criticized Germany's response as inadequate.
