Daughter of Russian Spy Attacked With Nerve Agent ‘Improving Rapidly’

Yulia Skripal, the daughter of ex-Russian spy Sergei Skripal, is “improving rapidly” after she and her father were poisoned with a Soviet-era nerve agent in the United Kingdom, hospital officials said Thursday. She is no longer in critical condition. The U.S. and British governments have blamed the nerve-agent attack on Russia. Earlier this week, both governments joined other countries in kicking out Russian diplomats as punishment.
