I mean, something like this has always been possible. All you need is to launch a commercial drone from a nearby apartment strapped with fireworks

I doubt Putin would resort to nukes from this, but the repercussions could be even more severe than it is right now. Perhaps this is an attempt at daring and provoking Russia even further by Ukraine and NATO...
I agree. Soder > Scholz >>>> other clowns. Germany doesn't really have anyone that could behave much differently from what Germany is currently doing and is also not a ridiculous racist.Not gonna happen. No one wants to enter into coalition with AfD. Perhaps they can take one of the states in Eastern Germany but even that seems like a stretch.
He is often ridiculed and rightfully so but I hope Scholz is re-elected as Chancellor purely because his alternatives are Merz and Baerbock.
It's a different story if Christian-Democrats decide to nominate Markus Söder (leader of CDU's Bavarian sister party CSU). In that case I believe he would be the best choice.
Ukrainian assassination attempt on Putin foiled – Kremlin
Ukraine launched two drone attacks overnight intended to strike the Kremlin residence of Russian President Vladimir Putin, his office has reported.
The aircraft were downed using electronic warfare measures and caused no casualties or damage, it said in a statement. Moscow considers the incident an act of terrorism.
The incident occurred late on Tuesday night, and both unmanned aircraft fell on the grounds of the Kremlin in Moscow, according to the president’s office. His schedule was not affected.
“We consider this a preplanned terrorist action and an attempt against the Russian president,” it added. The incident happened “ahead of Victory Day and the parade on May 9, when foreign guests plan to be present.”
Moscow bans use of drones
Moscow’s authorities have banned the unauthorized use of drones, the Russian capital’s mayor Sergey Sobyanin announced on Wednesday. The measure came shortly after a Ukrainian attempt to launch a drone attack on the Kremlin residence of Russian President Vladimir Putin, which failed to reach its objectives.
Russia warns of ‘retaliation’ for Ukrainian attack on Kremlin
Russia reserves the right to retaliate “anywhere and anytime it deems necessary” in response to the drone attack on President Vladimir Putin’s residence, the Kremlin has said.
Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov told RIA Novosti that the Russian leader was not in the Kremlin when the raid happened. He added that Putin was working at his Novo-Ogaryovo residence near Moscow on Wednesday.
Following the news, Andriy Yermak, Zelenskyy’s chief of staff, posted three fire emojis on his Telegram channel without any commentary, but deleted the post shortly after.
