In recent months, attacks inside Russian territory have intensified as it devastates cities in neighboring Ukraine, including a drone strike targeting the Kremlin. Ukraine has shirked direct responsibility, implying that these are Russian forces opposed to President Vladimir Putin.
However, U.S. officials believe Kyiv is indeed behind the attacks deep in Russian territory, carried out by secret units. Washington opposes these attacks, especially the use of American weapons in them.
