وزارة الدفاع الروسية تطلب من وزارة الدفاع الأمريكية إقناع أوكرانيا بالتوقف عن العمليات في يوم البحرية الروسية

The Russian Defense Ministry has reportedly asked the U.S. Department of Defense to persuade Ukraine to refrain from conducting operations on Navy Day in Russia. Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov stated that the Russian Defense Minister personally contacted his American counterpart to discuss the issue. The phone conversation between the two ministers is claimed to have had a positive outcome, avoiding any escalation. The Russian Federation has alleged that Ukrainian special services were planning an attack on July 28, the day Russian President Vladimir Putin and Defense Minister Andrey Belousov were attending a parade in St. Petersburg. The New York Times has also confirmed this information, quoting three unnamed U.S. officials. However, it remains unclear whether Ukraine was actually planning the reported operation.

On the Day of the Russian Navy, Ukrainian Defense Intelligence drones purportedly carried out successful attacks on various facilities in Russia. An oil depot in the Kursk region and an oil refinery in the city of Kstovo were reportedly targeted. If the Ukrainian operation had been executed, it could have led to a conflict between Russia and the United States, according to Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov. The Russian Defense Ministry’s request to the U.S. is seen as an effort to prevent any further escalation. However, it is important to note that the details of the alleged Ukrainian operation and its potential consequences remain unverified.
