Correct Answer: 1


Solution : The subject-verb agreement is incorrect in the original sentence. "Whereabouts" is a plural noun, so it should be paired with the plural verb "are" instead of the singular "is." Additionally, the phrase "the whereabouts of the Russian ambassador" conveys the intended meaning more clearly.
