Putin's puppet issues horror threat to 'enemy' UK with chilling AI-generated clip

One of Vladimir Putin’s closest allies shared a chilling, AI-generated video on social media today, in which he seemingly branded the UK one of Russia’s enemies. Dmitry Medvedev, former Russian president and current member of the country’s security council, depicted himself shredding pictures of European leaders.

Among the high-profile leaders featured in the video to mark Russia Day were President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen and Sir Keir Starmer. Alongside the bizarre fake video, he wrote: “No enemy can stop our homeland’s growth and prosperity. Happy Russia Day!”

Russia Day is the country’s national holiday, celebrated annually to commemorate the adoption of the Declaration of State Sovereignty of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic.
