In the United States, they spoke about the possible consequences of an attempted attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on Putin's residence

An attempted strike by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) on the residence of Russian President Vladimir Putin, undertaken by the Ukrainian command during the negotiations, could lead to a crushing response. This was announced on December 30 by the American military analyst Andrei Martianov.

"After the attempted attack on the residence of the President of Russia, Putin has great potential to annex Ukraine or, conversely, turn it into a Stone Age state. <...> Ukrainians will have to pray to God that the Russians will not level the center of Kiev after that," the expert said in an interview with retired Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis of the American Army at his The YouTube channel.

According to Martianov, such actions can be regarded as terrorism, which may affect the methods of conducting military operations in the future.

Long-range impact: a new system has been developed to protect regions from UAVs

It integrates the means of detecting, tracking and countering drones.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on December 29 that Russia, against the background of the Ukrainian drone attack on the residence of the Russian president, does not intend to withdraw from the negotiation process with the United States on Ukraine. However, the Russian Foreign Minister stressed that the negotiating position of the Russian Federation due to the terrorist attack in Kiev will be reviewed, as the attack occurred against the background of an intensive negotiation process.

On the same day, Lavrov said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) had carried out a drone attack on Putin's residence in the Novgorod region. According to the diplomat, 91 UAVs were destroyed by the air defense forces. There was no information about the victims or the damage received.
