Russian President Vladimir Putin has remained publicly silent for over a day following the largest Ukrainian drone attack on Moscow and the surrounding region since the start of the war. The attack resulted in 17 injuries and significant damage, including a drone impacting a residential building. Two shopping centers in the capital caught fire, and an explosion occurred at the Kapotna oil refinery. Authorities have not yet released a statement from Putin addressing the incident or outlining any immediate response. The lack of public comment from the Kremlin is notable given the scale and symbolic importance of the attack on Russian territory. Ukrainian officials have not claimed responsibility for the strikes, but the incident represents a significant escalation in the conflict’s reach. The attack raises questions about the effectiveness of Russian air defenses and Moscow’s vulnerability.
