The Kremlin has firmly dismissed allegations made by the head of the UK's domestic intelligence agency, MI5, concerning Russia's military intentions. According to Kremlin officials on Thursday, the claims are without merit and are considered to be 'absurd and baseless.'
The contentious remarks originated from the UK's domestic spy chief, Ken McCallum, during a statement on Tuesday. McCallum alleged that Russian military intelligence was intent on causing disruption across Britain and Europe.
In response, Russian authorities have denied such accusations and questioned the credibility of these claims from the British security service.
