Brief by Shorts91 Newsdesk / 12:50pm on 26 May 2025,Monday International

The Kremlin has denied any involvement in recent arson attacks targeting British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's current and former homes, as well as a car he once owned. The fires, which occurred earlier this month in north London, have led to charges against three men—two Ukrainians and one Romanian.
