Russia claims Ukraine targeted Putin in an attempted drone attack on the Kremlin

Moscow alleges Ukraine flew two drones toward the Kremlin last night in what it claims was an attempt to kill President Vladimir Putin. Ukraine denied any involvement and accused Moscow of a "trick." CNN’s Nic Robertson has the report. #CNN #News

The fact that Russia thinks they can attack a country but can't be attacked on their homeland is baffling

[guyb]

So Russia foiled a drone flying straight at the Kremlin all over Moscow, past all those surrounding air defense's, then straight and level at the Kremlin, then suddenly exploding safely above the Kremlin with no visible weapon taking it out and no one getting hurt. Got it.

So Russia has all the right to attack Ukraine but Ukraine cannot attack Russia? Mind-boggling to say the least.

Russia would NEVER lie about something as pretext for their own evil acts

That drone was flying like 50 MPH. If the defence of one of the most protected people in the world can't stop that thing then there is something seriously wrong with their air defence.

Russia: “We now have the right to retaliate against a country retaliating against our initial attack.”

[pauloc]

Do you really want us to believe that a drone left Ukraine and flew undetected to the Kremlin and landed on the roof 😂

[darkshyn]

An assassination attempt where the target wasn't around? Okay

[eternalskeptic]

My condolences to the family of the drone.

[ansont]

lol they're acting like they haven't been trying to kill zelenskyy this whole damn time 😂😂😂

[nasi]

"Putin tries to assassinate Zelensky 4 times"
"Zelensky tries to assassinate Putin 1 time"
Putin: You can't do that

[flynnrider]

I love when Pootin and the Kremlin are now acting like crybabies 😂😂😂😂

Is he sure it wasn't sent by his generals?

The video that I've seen of a drone exploding soon after missing a Russian flag on a government building in Moscow—That shows obvious evidence that it was a false flag operation. I used to be a pro video camera operator (much of it hand-held). It was NOT from a security camera but was hand-held by either a pro or semi-pro camera operator (or exceptionally good amateur). In addition, the slight camera movement throughout was extremely consistent. Even right after the explosion, the camera operator did not even seem to flinch, as if he or she was expecting that exact kind of explosion in that exact place during the videotaping. In other words, it seems extremely likely that the Russian authorities themselves planned and carried out the drone "attack".

False Flag Attack. Those drones looked like fireworks.

[bavery]

Fortunately, the Russians had cameras focused on the point of attack - purely by coincidence...

[holyland]

Not that it's true, but even if true, it's well deserved.

Russia needs to hire cinema directors and screenwriters at this stage. Their lies don’t even making sense anymore. How come some Russian people are so gullible ?? There is thousands of their soldiers dying for this crazy regime.

[lsthmar]

He should feel extremely lucky that he's still alive at this point of time considering to what he did in Ukraine.
