Kremlin increases security measures around Putin amid assassination and coup concerns
European intelligence agencies report that the Kremlin has dramatically heightened security protocols around President Vladimir Putin, including surveillance systems, movement restrictions, and communication controls. The measures follow the December killing of a top Russian general and reflect growing concerns within the Kremlin about assassination attempts, drone strikes, and possible coup plots. The security tightening also coincides with mounting instability in Russia due to the Ukraine war, economic pressures, and reported internal dissent.
