The ISW report asserts that "several indicators" suggest the attack was staged, noting that Russia recently enhanced "domestic air defense capabilities" while arguing it was "extremely unlikely" that Ukrainian drones could have thwarted "multiple layers of air defense" and be destroyed "in a way that provided spectacular imagery caught nicely on camera."..."The rapid and coherent presentation of an official Russian narrative around the strike suggests that Russia staged this incident in close proximity to the May 9th Victory Day holiday in order to frame the war as existential to its domestic audience," the ISW report states.

Russia now claims that the attacks were an assassination attempt on President Vladimir Putin.

No assassination attempt.
Russia shot down 2 drones.
During the shoot down of one drone, 2 men were on the ladder-catwalk leading up to the flag pole:

That drone had just flown past the flag pole that is situated above the Kremlin dome, when the drone was hit by a defense system.
Back story:
A careless, dilettante, thoughtless Ukrainian businessman, Volodymyr Yatsenko, announced a contest back in April:
“Competition for drone manufacturers to land a drone on Red Square in Moscow during Victory Day on May 9th”

Too late - blowing up the pipeline, the Kersch Bridge, and numerous attacks into Russia itself leaves Ukraine (and the Neocons) with ZERO CREDIBILITY when claiming that they had nothing to do with trying to take out Putin.
Russia will respond as appropriate to an assassination attempt. Perhaps Ukraine will now be humbled a bit by that.
Thanks! If we have the sound turned up on the video, we can hear what might have been a launch just before the drone comes into view. Sounds a bit like a popping noise.
The Institute for Grifting on War weighs in with Vicky Nuland’s official blab on this incident..
In the video, it appears that the drone itself might have exploded without being hit by any fire.
This sounds like that Spy Vs Spy cartoon from Mad Magazine.
One crow was white, hiding a time bomb as he shook the black crows hand in a phony show of friendship. The black crow was hiding his own lit time bomb.
Propaganda, neocon ISW says what!?

Too late for you and your ridiculous hatred to be taken seriously.
The mass murderer Putin should be dead, but this was an obvious staged event.
Just like all your propaganda posts here. Totally fake.
aka “The Institute for Grifting on War”.

You replied before I had a chance to let people know about these. Sorry about that.
But it’s good to keep this list on the ISW handy. 🙂
So what if he did? It’s still not our problem.
We’ve got an invasion going on right now along the southern border. Let’s spend our billions there.
And the USSR staged the Nazi invasion of June 1941.
Yep, those pesky Russians. Always doing something sneaky.
</sarc>
Great list! :)
Everyone needs to look up the ISW, who founded the organization, and who is now involved with it.
Its like the Hunter Biden institute for the study of clean government
“The mass murderer Putin should be dead, but this was an obvious staged event.”
It’s over for your friend Zelensky and his band of Merry Men. He was an IDIOT to keep escalating the war, rather than stand up to the Neocons.
