Putin’s limousine reportedly explodes in Moscow after Zelenskyy predicts his death

An explosion occurred near the Federal Security Service (FSB) headquarters in Moscow, reportedly involving a limousine believed to be part of President Vladimir Putin’s official fleet. Flames engulfed the vehicle, but no casualties or injuries have been reported.
While details of the incident remain unclear, and no official statement has been released by authorities, the event has raised questions and is considered by some as a potential disinformation campaign. The explosion, which took place near the FSB building in the Russian capital, resulted in the limousine catching fire, with flames spreading from the engine to the interior in a matter of minutes.

Driver’s identity still unknown
The identity of the driver and the cause of the explosion are still unknown. Reports suggest that the vehicle may have been assigned to the Kremlin’s Presidential Property Management Directorate.
Meanwhile, video footage from the scene shows significant damage to the rear of the car caused by the fireball.
‘Putin will die’
This incident comes just days after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s remarks on March 29, in which he predicted Putin’s imminent death due to deteriorating health. Zelenskyy stated, “He will die soon, that is a fact, and everything will be over.”
In recent years, heightened security measures have been implemented to protect Putin, including a nuclear response threat in the event of an assassination attempt. Putin frequently uses a fleet of limousines for his travels and has gifted similar vehicles to other world leaders, including North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Authorities have yet to comment on the explosion or provide further details about the incident.
