Putin has implemented more defensive measures around his residence (Image: Getty) Vladimir Putin has installed a ring of air defenses around his lake and forest palace northwest of Moscow , fearing more Ukrainian drone strikes. Russian media have reported the deployment of Pantsir-S1 air defense systems to protect the 71-year-old leader's luxurious Valdai residence. The Valdai palace has been fortified with an array of air defense systems, including the Pantsir-S1 and the more comprehensive S-400, making the area more secure than many Russian cities.
A Pantsir-S1 system was spotted on a tower in the forest on Ryabinovy Island near the residence, as revealed by satellite images taken on May 6 this year. Putin 's paranoia extends to his other properties, with similar defenses at his Novo-Ogarevo residence near Moscow. He shares the Valdai retreat with his 41-year-old alleged "secret lover", Alina Kabaeva, according to independent Russian media reports.
