KYIV, Ukraine, Dec 31, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Ukraine said Tuesday there was no "plausible" evidence it launched a drone attack on one of Russian President Vladimir Putin's residences, accusing Moscow of peddling falsehoods to manipulate talks on ending the war. The Kremlin said Tuesday it considered the alleged drone attack on Putin's secluded residence in the Novgorod region to be a "terrorist act" and a "personal attack against Putin". - European leaders rally around Ukraine -European leaders rallied around Ukraine following Moscow's allegation. The longtime Russian leader's residences are shrouded in secrecy in Russia -- as is much of his private life. Putin had been increasingly using the residence since the Ukraine war began, as it is more secluded and better protected by air defence installations, according to an investigation by RFE/RL.
