Putin’s Helicopter Reportedly Fends Off Drone Attack While President Was Onboard

A helicopter transporting Russian President Vladimir Putin was reportedly targeted by a drone in what sources are describing as a serious security breach. According to preliminary reports from Russian and international media outlets, the aircraft’s defensive systems—or escorting security forces—were able to neutralize the threat before it reached the helicopter.

The Kremlin has not released an official statement regarding the incident, and the exact location and timing of the event remain unclear. Some sources speculate that the drone was launched from within Russian territory, raising further concerns about internal security vulnerabilities.

If confirmed, the incident marks a significant escalation in the use of drone technology in high-profile attacks, potentially signaling new threats to top-level officials.
