In recent days, "Pantsir-S1" anti-aircraft missile systems have been spotted on the roofs of buildings in the center of Moscow.

As it turned out, they are aimed at protecting

Vladimir Putin

and his relatives from a theoretical Ukrainian strike. 

This was reported by the Russian publication "Agentstvo".

As noted in the publication, the conclusion that these air defense systems should protect the Russian dictator appeared after the installation of air defense appeared near the Valdai residence of the president.

Since there are no other objects for protection there. 

According to the publication, last week a resident of Valdai in the Novgorod Region shared a photo of the anti-aircraft complex, which, according to him, was placed in the settlement a few weeks ago.

The photo shows the Pantsir-S1 complex.

The same were seen in the center of Moscow and in the suburbs.

The "Agency" notes that the air defense system appeared in Yashcherovo shortly after the drone attack on Russian military airfields in the interior of the country.

Yashcherove

is one of the two closest villages to Putin's residence (just over six kilometers as the crow flies).

The Valdai residence, although it is called official, almost does not perform representative functions.

It is better known as a place of personal leisure for the dictator, his relatives and friends.

It was in Yashcherovo that people close to Putin, such as officers of the Federal Security Service, settled on a permanent basis.

In Moscow, air defense systems continue to be installed on the roofs of buildings: where else did Pantsir-S1 appear? 

In Moscow, air defense systems continue to be installed on the roofs of government buildings and important institutions.

Another weapon was placed on the roof of the building of the Ministry of Defense of Moscow at 38 Petrivka Street. Previously, the Russian anti-aircraft missile and gun complex (ZRGK) "Pantsir-S1" was placed on the building of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

At the same time, the Ministry of Defense does not comment on the installation of weapons within the city limits, but reported that training took place in the Moscow region.

The Sota Telegram channel reports on a new anti-aircraft weapon in the center of Moscow.

It should be noted that this is the center of Moscow, nearby are the Kolyorovy Bulvar metro station, the Hermitage Garden, museums and theaters, and the Bolshoi Theater is within walking distance.

The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, without commenting on the installation of anti-aircraft defense in the center of Moscow, reported that they had conducted training of the air defense forces with the participation of the S-300 anti-aircraft missile system battery in the Moscow region.

It is reported that the personnel of the anti-aircraft missile brigade of the Western Military District (ZVO) trained to repel air attacks on "important military, industrial and administrative facilities".

We will remind you that the Pantsir S-1 anti-aircraft missile systems were installed on the building of the Ministry of Defense of the

Russian Federation

a few kilometers from the Kremlin on Frunzenskaya embankment and on the administrative building in Teterynsky lane, another anti-aircraft complex was removed near the village of Zareche in the Odintsivsky District of Moscow - 10 kilometers from this place is 

the residence of President Putin, Novo-Ogaryovo.

Also, the S-400 complexes were deployed in the area of ​​the Tymiryaz Agricultural Academy.

And in the "Moose Island" park, trees were cut down for the sake of an entire anti-aircraft battery.

However, Yevhen Lebedev, a member of the State Duma Defense Committee, suggested that all of these footage were fake.

"I don't know anything about it. I think it's a fake, a montage," said a member of the State Duma.

A report by the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) states that

air defense systems in the center of Moscow

are being installed to create domestic information conditions for a protracted war in Ukraine.

The Russian Federation seeks to portray the war in Ukraine as more "dangerous" for Russian society, analysts note, since real attacks by Ukraine on Moscow are unlikely.
