(Reuters) -The Kremlin dismissed a New York Times report on Thursday that Russia or its proxies were flying surveillance drones over routes that the United States and its allies use to ferry military supplies through eastern Germany.

The newspaper quoted U.S. and other Western officials as saying Moscow was using the drones to collect intelligence that could be used to bolster a sabotage campaign against the West and to assist Russian troops fighting in Ukraine.
