A Ukrainian commander has announced that the anti-aircraft defense systems in the region where Vladimir Putin’s palace is located, in Crimea, would have been destroyed, foreign press reports, quoting Robert Brovdi, the commander of Ukraine’s drone forces.
This attack was preceded by another operation in the same region. On August 7, Ukrainian troops destroyed an electronic warfare system (EW) called “Volna Kupol Garant,” reports news.ro. It was used to jam Starlink satellite communications and ensured the protection of an area covering about 20 square kilometers. Its destruction opened the way for Ukrainian drones towards the S-400 system, located 500 meters away.
In the meantime, the Russian leader has started to move around in an armored train, according to The Moscow Times. According to the cited source, the state press uses archive images to illustrate the president’s movements, and no information is disclosed about his whereabouts.
The train used by Putin would reportedly have a gym, spa, and special communication equipment, but it would be disguised as a regular carriage of the Russian railways.
Some voices also claim that from the filming of some meetings with Putin to their publication, several months can pass, and the Russian leader’s motorcade, seen through Moscow, is just a simulation and the Russian president is not in any vehicle. Thus, the special services would try to ensure his security and avoid revealing information about his whereabouts.
