Payam Javan: According to a startling revelation by German news outlet Build, a crashed aircraft that was discovered outside of Moscow was intended to kill Russian President Vladimir Putin.

An explosive-laden kamikaze drone used in the Ukrainian secret service’s aerial assassination operation crashed on Sunday not far from the Rudnevo Industrial Park, which the despotic leader was apparently eyeing for a visit.

According to The Daily Beast, Russian security agencies have made an effort to hide evidence of the botched assassination attempt.

According to Bild, the drone was carrying 30 C4 explosive blocks, totaling 17 kilogrammes (more than 37 pounds), which are typically used by the armed forces of the United States and Canada, “among others.”
