“Uncovering the Mystery of Kremlin Drones: Was it an Assassination Attempt or a Deceptive Maneuver?”

A drone strike on the Kremlin in Moscow has caused shockwaves beyond the Russian capital. The attack, which took place early on Wednesday morning, saw two drones fly into the city, with one hitting the rotunda of the Senate Palace, home to Vladimir Putin’s office. The second drone exploded above the rotunda, scattering debris over the fortress compound. The only casualty was the pride of the Federal Protective Service, the Russian agency charged with securing the Kremlin. Although the Russian government claimed it was an attempt on Putin’s life, it is more likely to have been a demonstration of capability and a way of taunting the Russian government.
