Trump ‘shocked & outraged’ by alleged Putin house drone plot amid Ukraine talks

U.S. President Donald Trump’s first reaction has emerged after Russia claimed Ukraine targeted President Vladimir Putin’s Novgorod residence during ongoing peace talks. According to Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov, Trump was described as “shocked and outraged” by the reported attack. Russian officials say Ukraine launched a massive drone assault, claiming all 91 long-range drones were intercepted. Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov labeled the incident “state terrorism” and warned retaliation targets have been selected. Ukraine has firmly denied the accusation, with President Volodymyr Zelensky calling it a lie. The dramatic claim casts a shadow over peace negotiations hailed as making progress despite rising tensions.
