Multiple Russian security services have been arrested following Putin’s assassination attempt.
Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly survived an assassination attempt. The information was released on the General GVR Telegram channel on Wednesday which said that Putin was traveling in a decoy motorcade when the incident took place.
According to Euro Weekly news., Putin’s car was hit by a “loud bang” on its left front wheel followed by heavy smoke. Putin was unharmed as his car was driven to safety by officials. However, the security services have made several arrests over the assassination attempt.
It is also reported that some of Putin’s bodyguards have “disappeared” amid claims that the Russian President’s movements were compromised.
According to the information on the Telegram channel, Putin was traveling to his residence on an unspecified date in a decoy motorcade amid growing security fears. Reportedly, Putin was traveling in the third of his five vehicles.
The Telegram channel claimed that the first escort car was “blocked by an ambulance” and the second car was traveling without any hindrance. It claimed that the body of the person driving the ambulance which blocked the first escort vehicle of Putin was found.
In 2017, Putin publicly disclosed that he had survived at least five assassination attempts.
Several people have been baying for the Russian strongman’s blood, but Putin has always managed to escape unhurt.
So far, there have been five assassination attempts on the Russian strongman, excluding the one that took place this week.
