Responding to Russia's accusation that the U.S. was behind Wednesday's drone attack on the Kremlin, White House spokesperson John Kirby said it was a "ludicrous claim."

"There's a word that comes to mind that I'm obviously not -- not appropriate to using on national TV," Kirby said on CNN on Thursday.

"I will just tell you Mr. Peskov is lying, and I mean, that's obviously, it's a ludicrous claim," he added. "The United States had nothing to do with this. We don't even know exactly what happened here, Kaitlin. But I can assure you, the United States had no role in it whatsoever."

Kirby said the U.S. does not have any information on who is behind the strike but are "trying to learn more about this as best we can."

Russian President Vladimir Putin's spokesman accused the United States of being involved in the drone attack on the Kremlin on Wednesday.

"We understand well that the decision about such terror attacks are taken not in Kyiv, but in Washington," Dmitry Peskov told reporters in a briefing. "Often targets are determined not in Kyiv but in Washington. They don't Kyiv the right everytime in choosing the means. In Washington they also clearly understand that we know that."

He added, "Without question. Such decisions -- the determining of targets and means -- are all dictated to Kyiv from Washington."

Peskov said it was important that Washington understand the "danger" of such involvement in an attack.

The U.S. Embassy in Ukraine sent an alert to Americans on Wednesday warning of an "ongoing heightened threat of missile attacks," including in Kyiv.

"In light of the recent uptick in strikes across Ukraine and inflammatory rhetoric from Moscow, the Department of State cautions U.S. citizens of an ongoing heightened threat of missile attacks, including in Kyiv and Kyiv Oblast," the alert stated.

The U.S. Embassy urged U.S. citizens to follow guidance from local authorities and to observe air alarms and shelter appropriately.

Russia plans to move tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus to the country's western borders, Boris Gryzlov, the Russian ambassador to Belarus, said Sunday.

Gryzlov's announcement comes just three days after Russia and the United States clashed in the United Nations over the Kremlin's plans to deploy tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus. U.S. officials denounced the move as a desperate attempt by Russia to avoid military defeat and “threaten the world with nuclear apocalypse."

Gryzlov said in an address aired on the Belarusian STV channel that tactical nuclear weapons "will be moved to the western borders of our Union State and will increase the possibilities for ensuring our security."

The western border of Belarus is shared by Poland, a NATO country supporting Ukraine. Russian forces have used Belarus as a staging ground for the war in Ukraine.

"This will be done despite the noise in Europe and the United States," Gryzlov said.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the decision and slammed Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, saying he "no longer decides which weapons are on his territory."

"And does (Vladimir) Putin threaten the world? Of course, if Ukraine does not resist, it will fall, Putin will move on, we have emphasized this many times," Zelenskyy said. "With the help of our friends and partners, our army will stand firm and win what is rightfully ours. Victory and our independence."
