The German government says Russia wiretapped a conversation between German air force generals about the war in Ukraine.

The officers are heard discussing Ukrainian forces using German-made Taurus cruise missiles to attack the bridge linking Crimea to Russia. Germany has so far refused to supply Kyiv with the long-range weapons. The defense ministry in Berlin has confirmed that the conversation – which surfaced on social media – was tapped.

Chancellor Olaf Scholz is promising swift clarification of the recording.
