Moscow, Russia – Russian President Vladimir Putin may have been the target of an audacious assassination attempt, according to a new report.
The German tabloid BILD claims its own investigation reveals that the Ukrainian secret service tried to assassinate the Russian leader via a Kamikaze drone on Sunday.
In a report that says Russia is trying to cover up the attack, BILD cites Ukrainian activist Yuriy Romanenko, who tweeted a length statement on Monday.

Ukrainian agents apparently attempted to assassinate Russian President Vladimir Putin with a drone that had been equipped with explosives. However, the mission appears to have failed after the drone crashed several miles from its target, per the Daily Mail.
Yuriy Romanenko, who is said to have close ties to Ukraine’s intelligence services, suggested that Ukrainian agents had received intel that Putin was apparently set to visit an industrial site around Moscow and decided to act.
However, the explosives-ridden drone never made it to its target, crashing to the ground in Voroskogo village before it reached the Rudnevo industrial park. The Ukrainian forces allegedly deployed the UJ-22 drone, which was equipped with 17 kilograms of C4 plastic explosives, from the country on Sunday with the hopes of killing the Russian leader, per Bild.
