Moscow — Russian authorities accused Ukraine on Wednesday of attempting to attack the Kremlin with two drones overnight. The Kremlin decried the alleged attack attempt as a “terrorist act” and said Russian military and security forces disabled the drones before they could strike.
In a statement carried by Russian state-run news agencies, it said there were no casualties.
The Kremlin added that President Vladimir Putin was safe and continued to work with his schedule unchanged.

Russia retains the right to respond “when and where it sees fit,” the Tass report said, quoting the statement.
