Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov pointed out on Tuesday that reports about the alleged plans of Egypt to secretly supply Russia with thousands of missiles look like another misinformation.

Earlier in the day, The Washington Post reported, citing what it said was a leaked top-secret US document, that Egypt was secretly planning to deliver up to 40,000 missiles to Russia.

"It looks like another misinformation, which there is plenty of today, that is how such reports should be perceived," Peskov told reporters.

In the same context, an official Egyptian source denied the claims mentioned in The Washington Post's article, stressing that this is "absurd" and baseless talk, as per Egyptian media.

The Egyptian source stressed that his country follows a balanced policy with all international parties, adding that the determinants of this policy are peace, stability, and development.

Egyptian officials also said that Cairo maintains a neutral stance toward the war in Ukraine.

"We continue to urge both parties to cease hostilities and reach a political solution through negotiations," an Egyptian Foreign Ministry spokesperson told The Washington Post.
