Ukraine rejects Russia’s claim of Kremlin drone attack
The Hill ^ | 05/03/2023 | JARED GANS

A senior Ukrainian official on Wednesday rejected Russia’s claim that Ukraine sent drones to attack the Kremlin and assassinate Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Ukrainian presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak tweeted that Ukraine has fought “an exclusively defensive war” against Russia and does not target any areas inside Russian territory. He questioned the strategic purpose of such an attack against the Kremlin.

“This does not solve any military issue. But it gives [Russia] grounds to justify its attacks on civilians,” Podolyak said.

He said Moscow’s claims about the alleged drone attack are “predictable,” asserting that Russia is “clearly” planning for a “large-scale terrorist attack.”

Video: Two people can be seen climbing the dome at the Kremlin as the reported Ukrainian drone hits

This is getting interesting. At the same moment as the drone is flying in, someone is climbing onto the dome.

I saw it...was it guards?? They keep going after the blast which looked like an attack by a cap gun.

Unlikely that drones made it all the way there from Ukraine. More likely, Ukraine has deep-cover agents and saboteurs in or near Moscow.

There were also some Kremlin guards on the video watching the drone hit from the street. They just kept talking. Not worried at all.

Anything is possible but the part I found very suspicious is that they exploded the drone when it is just about touching the dome if the thing had any explosives in it capable of doing something to the building letting it get so close could have been devastating.
It seems like the guys climbing there were to make sure when they set the thing off that it didn’t cause any fire.

The Kremlin is worried about the Ukrainian offensive and they want to take some kind of action to blunt it or some kind of severe retaliation or maybe this is just to whip up domestic support for the war.

Well, if Ukraine - the least corrupt country in the entire world - claims it, and the Hill Publishes it, that pretty much settles it!

Pawn shops and bread queues: poverty grips Ukraine as war drags on

Now the above article is from the Guardian, which I normally don't promote their articles, but when they let the truth slip out I will post their articles.

How long will Zelenskyy survive, as the regular citizens continue to suffer from a war they never wanted. Zelenskyy is a Russian speaking Ukrainian, who ran on ending the conflict in eastern Ukraine, only to throw his people into a war they could only win with the support of the U.S. & western European nations. Problem is, the citizens of the European nations are tired of wars, as are the American citizens as well. In addition, the leadership in America is the most clueless and feckless this nation has ever had.

Even some on this board still support the conflict these worthless leaders of ours have purposely created for their global elite masters, and they are no better than our worthless leaders.

They believe they are helping the Ukrainian people, but the Ukrainian people would tell them the truth, if they had the power to communicate that truth, that they are instead creating a hell for them.
