'US Patriot torched Kyiv Monastery': Did Ukraine’s own missile hit Pechersk Lavra? Russia shocker

A fierce debate has erupted after Russia claimed that a U.S.-supplied Patriot air defense missile, not a Russian strike, damaged Kyiv's historic Pechersk Lavra monastery during a massive overnight attack. Moscow insists its forces targeted Ukrainian drone production facilities and accused Kyiv of concealing an air defense malfunction. Ukrainian and Western officials, however, blamed Russia for the damage amid one of the heaviest attacks on the capital in weeks. The competing narratives have turned the monastery incident into a fresh information war battleground as the conflict enters another dangerous phase.
