Moscow was hit by some drone attacks early on Tuesday morning, causing damage to several buildings. The drone attack was evidently in Putin's neighborhood and there were no casualties reported.
The attacks came as Russia's war in Ukraine continues, and it is not yet clear who was responsible.
The first attack occurred at around 6:00 a.m. local time, when a drone crashed into a building in the central business district. The impact caused minor damage to the building, but there were no injuries. A second drone crashed into a building in the city's outskirts shortly after.
Air defense systems shot down several other drones as they approached the city, but at least one drone was able to penetrate the defenses and cause damage. The Russian government has not yet released any information about the type of drones used in the attack, or who was responsible.
The attacks come as Russia is facing increasing international pressure over its war in Ukraine. The United States and its allies have imposed a series of sanctions on Russia, and the International Criminal Court is investigating possible war crimes committed by Russian forces in Ukraine.
The drone attacks are a reminder of the vulnerability of Russia's capital city to attack. Moscow has been relatively unscathed by the war so far, but the attacks on Tuesday show that Russia is not immune to terrorism.
The Russian government has vowed to track down those responsible for the attacks, and it has warned that anyone who is caught will be punished severely. The attacks are a sign that the war in Ukraine is having a significant impact on Russia, and they are likely to further escalate tensions between Russia and the West.
