(News investigators) The Kremlin was struck by Ukrainian drones early on Wednesday morning, officials in Moscow claimed, adding it was an attempt on Russian President Vladimir Putin’s life, potentially marking a major escalation in the ongoing conflict between the two countries as Kyiv is expected to mobilize its forces for a planned spring offensive.
Officials in Moscow claimed that two Ukrainian drones crashed into the Kremlin after being shot down by the Russian military’s electronic air defense systems.
No injuries were reported from this purported attack.
In a statement, the Kremlin said it will take “retaliatory measures whenever and wherever it sees fit.”
