Ukraine attempted to attack Putin's residence…Russia: "Retaliatory strike target and timing decided"

Reports have emerged that Ukraine attempted to attack the residence of Russian President Vladimir Putin. In response, Russia said it had completed preparations to carry out retaliatory strikes following the attempt.

On the 29th (local time), according to economic breaking-news channel Walter Bloomberg, Ukraine is said to have tried to attack the presidential state residence of President Putin located in Russia's Novgorod region. Specific means of attack and whether there was any damage were not disclosed.

In response, the Russian state news agency TASS reported that Russian authorities had already decided on the targets and timing of retaliatory attacks after the attempt on the presidential residence. However, it did not reveal the specific details of retaliatory measures or the execution schedule.

Russia has long defined attacks on the president and key national facilities as a "red line." It is observed that if this matter is confirmed, there is a high possibility that military tensions will escalate further.

Military clashes between Ukraine and Russia have recently spread into disputes over major infrastructure and strategic targets. Both sides continue attacks and reprisals, and tensions are spreading to areas unrelated to the front lines.

Markets and diplomats are watching whether this matter could further intensify the state of war. The international community is closely monitoring whether the situation will spread further.
