France to Summon Russian Ambassador Over Ukrainian Deaths

The French foreign ministry will summon the Russian ambassador to condemn the killing of two French humanitarian workers in Ukraine and protest the surge of anti-French disinformation. This follows Russia's claim that it killed dozens of 'French mercenaries' in a strike in northeastern Ukraine, which Paris has denied. Tensions between the two countries have grown, with France also planning to denounce reinforced disinformation targeting them. President Emmanuel Macron is expected to visit Kyiv later this month, a trip that France believes could be the target of further disinformation attacks.
