Russia shows video of drone it says Ukraine fired at Putin residenceMOSCOW, Dec 31, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Russia's defence ministry published a video Wednesday of a downed drone that it said Ukraine launched at President Vladimir Putin's residence in northwest Russia this week -- a claim Kyiv has branded a "lie". But Russia has called it a "terrorist attack" and a "personal attack" against Putin, saying it will toughen its negotiation stance in Ukraine war talks. The video, shot at night in the dark, showed a damaged drone lying in snow in a forested area. Russia has not said where Putin was at the time, claiming the attack was launched on the night of December 28-29 at Putin's home in the Novgorod region. The defence ministry said the attack started around 7:00 pm on December 28 and was a "mass" drone launch at Putin's residence, but said the longtime leader's home was not damaged.
