    Ukraine war: Leak shows Western special forces on the ground
    Their presence in Ukraine is likely to be seized upon by Moscow, which has in recent months argued that it is not just confronting Ukraine, but Nato as well.

    Interesting, checking the quote retweet, and someone assumed that it might be
    a debut for the long-range drone.

    But more interestingly, if it is true, how can it avoid the Russian air defense?

    Russia is B-I-G. Siberia is isolated and there's not much there that needs defending. At least it didn't until now.

    According to BILD research, the Ukrainian secret service tried to kill Russian President Vladimir Putin with a kamikaze drone on Sunday.

    Russia claimed Wednesday that Ukraine tried to assassinate President Vladimir Putin in an overnight drone attack on the Kremlin.

    doesn't look like much explosives in that drone; probably false flag

    Russian ex-president Dmitry Medvedev said on Wednesday in a post on social media that an alleged overnight drone attack on the Kremlin left Moscow with no options but to "eliminate" Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and his "clique" in Kyiv.

    The speaker of Russia’s parliament, Vyacheslav Volodin, demanded the use of “weapons capable of stopping and destroying the Kyiv terrorist regime” in response to an alleged Ukrainian drone attack on the Kremlin on Wednesday.

    Some armed drone the 'warhead' looked more like a flash bulb meanwhile
    the Russians are destroying civilian apartment blocks in Ukraine.
    Somebody ought to explain to Herr Putin that the Kremlin is the centre
    of government of the nation that invaded Ukraine and started the war by attacking the Babi Yar memorial. Their excuse was that meant to attack
    the TV tower but missed.

    Russia blames US for alleged Putin drone assassination attempt, White House calls claim 'ludicrous'
    "We know that often it isn’t even Kyiv that determines the targets, but Washington," Dmitry Peskov, press secretary of the president of the Russian Federation, said at a briefing
    He continued, "It’s very important that Washington understands that we know this and understands how dangerous such direct involvement in the conflict is."
    Mykhailo Podolyak, Office of the President of Ukraine adviser, previously dismissed the drone incident as a false flag meant to justify retaliation.
    "Russia is clearly preparing a large-scale terrorist attack." https://www.foxnews.com/world/russia-blames-us-alleged-putin-drone-assassination-attempt-white-house-calls-claim-ludicrous
