Putin accuses Germany of planting Leipzig evidence

Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday accused Germany of planting evidence to blame Moscow for the attempted drone attack at Leipzig airport.

Germany's Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt previously said the Leipzig airport attack followed the "well-established pattern of Russian hybrid operations in Europe".

Russia Editor Steve Rosenberg says Russia's reaction is "as you might expect, denial and prolific finger-pointing".
