Moscow (The Uttam Hindu): A luxurious Aurus limousine, part of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s convoy, exploded near the Russian security agency FSB's headquarters in Moscow, turning into a massive fireball. The incident, which occurred near the FSB building at Lubyanka, has sent shockwaves through Russia's security apparatus.

A viral video circulating on social media shows the limousine engulfed in flames, with the fire originating from the engine. Although employees from nearby bars rushed to help, the intensity of the blaze made it impossible to approach. Reports indicate that the car belonged to Putin's Presidential Property Management Department, adding further intrigue to the incident.

In the wake of the explosion, Putin has ordered an immediate search of sewers and an investigation into the security of his guards, raising questions about the cause and potential foul play. This event comes on the heels of recent comments by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who had controversially predicted Putin’s death.

In a related development, Ukraine has launched a major offensive in Russia’s Belgorod region, creating panic among Russian forces. Ukrainian forces targeted over 20 villages along the 150-kilometer border, sparking widespread alarm. While the Ukrainian army has not formally claimed responsibility for the attacks, their impact is being felt throughout the Russian camp.

In the aftermath of Ukraine’s advances last year, the Belgorod region had remained a key focus. However, reports indicate that the Russian hold on parts of the Kursk region is weakening, with help from North Korean soldiers playing a critical role.

North Korean Support for Russia: 3,000 Soldiers Deployed

A major revelation came from South Korea’s army on Thursday, confirming that North Korea sent at least 3,000 additional soldiers to Russia earlier this year, bolstering Putin's forces in the conflict. This influx of support has reportedly enabled Russia to push Ukrainian troops back towards the border. The new wave of aggression has led to heightened tensions, prompting Zelensky’s forces to launch renewed attacks, intensifying the ongoing conflict along the border.

As the situation evolves, both nations brace for the continuation of a war that shows no signs of abating.
