Russian commander claims Putin's helicopter was 'at the epicenter' of Ukrainian drone attack

[Maximum Overkill 1,814]

Good luck with this one Zelensky. I'm sure Putin won't take that lightly.  

- A Russian military commander has claimed that President Vladimir Putin's helicopter was "at the epicenter" of a Ukrainian drone attack on May 20 in Russia's Kursk Oblast.

The Kyiv Independent could not independently verify this claim, and the commander did not provide any evidence.

"We were simultaneously engaged in an air defense battle and ensuring airspace security for the president’s helicopter flight," Yury Dashkin, commander of an air defense division, said, as cited by the Russian news agency RBC on May 25. "The helicopter was effectively at the epicenter of the response to the massive drone attack."

Ukrainian observers noted that the claims could be an attempt to garner support for the Russian president by painting him as more closely involved in the fighting.

Putin visited Kursk earlier this week, marking his first known visit to Kursk Oblast since Russian forces took back most of the Ukrainian foothold in the region in March.

Ukraine launched its cross-border incursion into Kursk Oblast in August 2024, marking the first large-scale invasion of Russian territory by foreign forces since World War II. It held a significant portion of the territory until a successful counter-offensive by Russia in March, which was carried out with the help of North Korean troops.

Is Zelensky still being the self proclaimed dictator of Ukraine? Or will he ever allow elections again? 

Well, I guess at this point he's toast anyway. Bye bye Ukraine. #1 human trafficking (slave) capital of the world.

Russia is claiming this so they can use it to justify launching several missed at Kiev.

Actual war zone. I’m sure Zelensky has been fired on both incidentally & purposefully. And I’m sure it was a temptation to hit Putin on the May 9th parade, if they wanted to take him out he was an easy target there.

Zelensky ordering hits on Putin. Putin publicly calling Trump “emotional” that’s Russian for “his betch”. Zelensky given freedom to attack inside Russia from Europe. Trump’s input is Putin is being mean to him and talking about sanctions.

I guess the ending the war in 24 hours shtick goes down as one of the stupider things Trump campaigned on.

The only reason why he knows how many times I've been married is because of his creepy Internet stalking that led him all the way to places where he looked up their hair color and creepily posted about it here to show what a big, bad man he thinks he is.

What kind of grown-ass sane man does this kind of thing?

Not as bad as Horseass making fun of my autistic son and posting my real name here twice.

Maxipad seems kinda twisted by this news. Meanwhile the rest of us would celebrate Putin's untimely death.

Has there ever been more overwhelming evidence of where this idiot's loyalties lie? How much you stand to lose in Russian Bot income if Putin gets 86'd?
