Chechen leader Kadyrov says he travelled to Ukraine

(Reuters) - Ramzan Kadyrov, the leader of Russia's Chechnya region and an ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, said on Sunday that he had travelled into Ukraine to meet Chechen troops attacking Kyiv.

Reuters could not independently verify whether he was in Ukraine or had travelled there during the conflict.

Chechen television channel Grozny posted a video on its Telegram social media channel earlier on Sunday that showed Kadyrov in a darkened room discussing with Chechen troops a military operation they said took place 7 km (4.3 miles) from the Ukrainian capital.

The post did not make clear where or when the meeting had taken place.
