Kremlin tightens security for Putin amid coup and drone assassination fears
Intelligence reports published on August 25 reveal that the Russian Federal Protective Service (FSO) has significantly heightened security for President Vladimir Putin. Measures include restricting his residence to two bunker-equipped locations in Krasnodar, implementing two-level screenings for all visitors, and periodically shutting down internet networks in Moscow to disrupt potential drone attacks. The reports follow the recent killing of Lieutenant General Fanil Sarvarov and suspected instability within the military high command.
