BREAKING: Drone attack on Putin residence directed at a Russian nuclear command and control center

This according to the ex-adviser to the office of the President of Ukraine, Alexey Arestovich.

Professor Steven Starr is the former director of the Clinical Laboratory Science Program at the University of Missouri. His work on nuclear issues has appeared in both the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists and the Federation of American Scientists.

A drone attack carried out against one of Putin’s residences was also an attack against a Russian nuclear command and control center located at the residence, according to the ex-adviser to the office of the President of Ukraine, Alexey Arestovich, and a military expert interviewed by Sputnik news and Tass.

This is yet another drone attack that attempted to kill the Russian President; the first occurred when Putin was traveling to Kursk in his helicopter and was attacked by a drone swarm. This second drone attack against Putin’s residence was also an attack against a component of the nuclear triad (the nuclear control center in the residence), which under Russian law and military code, justifies a nuclear response.

Who carried out these attacks?

The Russian FSB Chief stated that the British were behind the attacks on the Russian strategic nuclear bombers in June 2025; this attack followed the drone attacks against the Russian land-based nuclear early warning radar sites in May 2024. Ukraine was blamed for the May attacks, but the NY Times later reported that US Generals located in Wiesbaden are directing the war in Ukraine; the US uses its satellite and aerial reconnaissance to provide targeting information for attacks on Ukraine -- and Russia.

RT quoted the (British) Financial Times in October 2025, stating that the US was responsible for guiding almost continuous drone attacks against Russian infrastructure -- within Russia -- “for the last several months”. In other words, throughout the time when the Trump administration has been conducting “peace negotiations” with Russia, the US continues to conduct drone attacks against Russian oil refineries, airports, etc. And now: A Russian nuclear command and control center?

Tass interviewed a Russian military expert who stated that the drone attack on Putin’s residence was guided by NATO systems.

Andrey Marochko stated:

“”The West is clearly involved in this provocation, since the tactical and technical characteristics of the drones launched by Ukrainian militants allow for targeting using geolocation and the NATO satellite system. Therefore, as always, I believe that Britain and the so-called coalition of the willing are involved here, as they provided the target coordinates and flight instructions for these drones. The components for these drones are also supplied by the West,” he said.

Meanwhile, increased interference on the high seas by the Baltic States and NATO is taking place against tankers carrying Russian oil; even drone attacks against the Russian “shadow fleet” are occuring. Drone attacks on ships at sea require satellite intel for targeting purposes; is the intel supplied by NATO member states or the US?

Apparently US and NATO leaders believe that Russia will forgo direct military action in response to this escalating violence against Russia. But under such circumstances, Russia cannot forever carry out reprisals strictly against targets in Ukraine.

In an interview today with Glenn Diesen, Stanislav Krapivnik said that there is now immense public pressure in Russia to take more forceful military action against Ukraine and NATO in response to this war being waged against Russia.
