Russian President Vladimir Putin's staff has commissioned the construction of a large bomb shelter in Moscow amid a series of startling drone attacks near the capital and cross-border raids from Ukraine.
“The 800-person bunker for VIP patients and personnel is expected to be constructed at the Moscow Central Clinical Hospital, a protected facility, in near-record time,” the Moscow Times reported Friday, citing a Kremlin procurement contract signed last week. “All construction of what is officially termed a ‘civil defense protective structure’ is expected to be completed by Dec. 20 this year.
The procurement document for the bunker was signed just days before Tuesday’s apparent drone attack. That operation caused only “minor damage” in Moscow’s suburbs, but the bunker requirements hint at preparations for more intense assaults. Earlier in May, Russian authorities accused Ukraine of attempting to assassinate Putin through a drone attack that targeted the Kremlin; those claims were met with skepticism, in part because he was in St. Petersburg at the time of the incident.
In the meantime, the second drone attack forced Russian air defenses into dramatic action, continuing a pattern of breaches of Russian security — including through cross-border raids by Russian neo-Nazis who defected from Russia in recent years — that have embarrassed the government and prompted a series of retaliatory threats.
