Washington asked Kyiv to refrain from strikes on Moscow - source

Washington asked Kyiv to refrain from strikes on Moscow. An informed source reported this.

According to him, the USA asked Ukraine not to attack Moscow these days, due to the fact that a delegation of American officials will be there.

Recall that today CIA Director John Ratcliffe arrived in Moscow. The American plane landed at Vnukovo airport, after which a motorcade with US diplomatic plates drove through the Russian capital.

According to Flightradar24, the plane arrived from Riga. The purpose of the visit of the American delegation and the composition of passengers are still unknown.

The Kremlin stated that it allegedly has no information about the arrival of the American aircraft. The speaker of the Russian dictator Dmitry Peskov also said that no meetings with representatives of the White House were planned.

Note that thanks to the real-time flight tracking service, it became known that it is an American Boeing C-17 Globemaster III. Its tail number also became known - RCH4555.

The plane that arrived in Moscow arrived in Riga on August 23 from Andrews Air Force Base (Maryland) - the base from which planes of US President Donald Trump and other officials depart.
