The Kremlin announced that Russian President Vladimir Putin was unharmed, and that he was not in the Kremlin at the moment of the attack by two drones on the Russian presidential residence in the capital, Moscow, late on Tuesday evening.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Putin was present at his residence on the outskirts of Moscow in “Nova Ogaryova”, and was not harmed and his schedule had not changed. The Russian presidency considered the attack an attempt to assassinate Putin.
The Kremlin said that the attack took place following midnight, and the target location is one of the Kremlin buildings in the area overlooking the Red Square, which is completely closed in preparation for the military parade on the occasion of Victory Day on the ninth of this month, and it appears that the federal protection agencies were able to monitor the marches and bring them down.
For its part, the Russian Emergency Service also announced the fall of another drone in the city of Kolomna on the outskirts of Moscow, regarding 110 kilometers from the Kremlin building. She said she worked to dismantle her explosive charge.
No party has yet determined where the marches came from, especially since Russia has openly accused Kiev of being responsible for the attack. However, given the nature and size of the explosion, various analyzes suggested that the two marches were launched from inside Moscow from a close distance that is difficult for radars to detect.
The hypothesis of launching from outside the borders remains plausible, but insignificant, according to analysts. If it is considered that these planes were launched from the nearest geographical point in Ukraine and are located in the north of Sumy, then they should be able to fly a distance of regarding 600 kilometers without being detected, and this is illogical, according to observers. .
