THIS is the unbelievable moment a Ukrainian aircraft-style drone smashes into Putin’s puppet Kadyrov’s special operations base.
The site, in the Russian city of Grozny, Chechnya – erupted into a gargantuan fireball in yet another devastating blow to mad Vlad.

Ukraine’s targeted attack appeared to hit the base of a special operations unit, renowned to be a key base for the Russian dictator’s warlord Kadyrov who has sent tens of thousands of troops to the war.
Shooting was heard in attempts to down the pilotless plane loaded with explosives, but there appeared a lack of air defences against the slow-moving incoming drones.
It is the third strike on the city in 11 days.
The extent of damage and any toll was not immediately known.
It came soon after Vladimir Putin, 72, had awarded Kadyrov, 48, a ‘For Services to the Fatherland’ honour in an unannounced but secretly-filmed Kremlin ceremony when other top officials loyal to the dictator also received gongs.
Kadyrov – who holds the rank of colonel-general in the Russian national guard – had demanded better air defence protection for his capital.
Kadyrov has been widely sanctioned by the West for human rights abuses as well as his support to Putin over the war.
He previously threatened to place Ukrainian prisoners of war on rooftops of strategic buildings to discourage attacks by Volodymyr Zelensky’s forces.
A new investigation by Proekt independent media found that Kadyrov has tripled the size of what amounts to his own private army.
No less than nine new paramilitary units have been established since the start of the war.
No other regional leader in Russia is allowed to maintain their own private army.
