A RUSSIAN plot to spark war with a faked video was exposed last night.
US intelligence revealed Putin’s henchmen were planning to release footage of a staged Ukrainian attack on Russia or Russian-speakers.
Actors were believed to have been used in the shocking ruse, posing as troops and corpses.
As British intelligence experts verified the sinister false flag plot, Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said: “This is shocking evidence of Russia’s unprovoked aggression.”
Sources said Russia wanted to use the video to accuse Ukraine of genocide — and the resulting outrage to justify an all-out attack.
But it was intercepted before it could go viral.
It came as Russian bombers probed UK air defences for a second day in a row yesterday.
