The Investigative Committee (IC) of Russia opened a criminal case under the article "terrorist act" (Article 205 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) after an attempted attack by two drones on the Kremlin. This is stated in the message of the investigative department in Telegram.
The report states that the case was initiated on behalf of the Chairman of the ICR Alexander Bastrykin "in connection with an attempt by the Kyiv regime to strike with unmanned aerial vehicles at the Kremlin residence of the president."
“As a result of timely actions taken by the military and special services with the use of radar warfare systems, the vehicles were disabled,” the IC reports.
Earlier, Russian troops shelled Kherson and the Kherson region, 19 people were killed and 47 more were injured.
Before that, the Kremlin stated that the Russian side "reserves the right to take retaliatory measures where and when it sees fit." Pro-Russian bloggers and officials also called for strikes on Kyiv. The statement was made after the UAV attack on the Kremlin residence of Vladimir Putin. Ukraine denies information about its involvement in the attack, Zelensky said that Kiev is protecting its territories and will not attack Moscow or Putin. State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin, in turn, claims that "a terrorist attack against the president is an attack on Russia."
