Russia says Zelensky ‘threat’ to hit Kremlin ‘irresponsible’

Russia on Friday accused Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky of making “irresponsible” threats after he said Moscow’s top officials should check for bomb shelters near the Kremlin if the country does not stop its offensive on Ukraine.

“Zelensky is clearly continuing his desperate efforts… That’s why he’s issuing threats left and right, which is quite irresponsible,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told journalists, including from AFP, at a briefing.
