US confirm they are working with Ukraine to secure research at Bio-Lab facilities in Ukraine

U.S government officials have given testimony during a hearing into the Russian Invasion of Ukraine that Washington is currently working with Ukraine to secure research materials in bio-lab facilities scattered throughout the country because of fears the research may fall into Russian hands.

The revelations by Under Secretary of State Victoria Nuland has raised questions about the veracity of "fact-checks" that denied or downplayed US links to biological research facilities in the Ukraine.
