Russia Denies Role In 'French Soldiers Killed In Ukraine' Coffins Placed At Eiffel Tower | Details

Russia denied its role in a stunt that saw several coffins appear at the Eiffel Tower. Russia's embassy in France has strongly protested the 'new Russophobic campaign'. Russia said the campaign launched in French media is affecting the security of its citizens. Five coffins draped in the French flag were deposited by three men in a van on June 1. The coffins reportedly bore the inscription “French soldiers killed in Ukraine." A Bulgarian, a Ukrainian, and a German were later arrested in connection with it. French authorities and media posited that Russia may have organised the stunt. This is in response to Emmanuel Macron’s suggestion that France could send the military to Ukraine or allow it to use French weapons to strike inside Russia. Watch
