Russian leader Vladimir Putin’s helicopter was allegedly at the epicenter of a large-scale attack by Ukrainian Armed Forces drones during a visit to the Kursk region, the commander of the regional air defense unit, Yuri Dashkin, reported in a comment to the Russian publication RBC .
According to him, during the Kremlin head’s visit, the Ukrainian side launched an “unprecedented attack,” during which 46 drones were allegedly shot down.
“We simultaneously conducted anti-aircraft combat and ensured the safety of the presidential helicopter’s flight in the air,” Dashkin said, emphasizing that the helicopter was actually in the center of the fighting.
