Putin has reinforced his National Guard with elite special forces, arming them with tanks and warplanes. The move is seen as making the Kremlin "coup-proof," an analyst told The Telegraph. The National Guard, created by Putin in 2016, has 320,000 men and reports directly to him rather than the Ministry of Defense. An MP for Putin's United Russia party Alexander Khinshtein said that Putin has personally ordered the Interior Ministry's 7,000-men-strong Grom special forces unit to move under its command. "Putin is straightening the special forces' command and control after Prigozhin's mutiny," he said.

Dr. Stephen Hall, a Russia expert at the University of Bath, said the drone attack "certainly has brought the war to the streets in Moscow like nothing else."

On Tuesday morning, a wave of drone strikes hit the Russian capital. An ambulance and firefighting vehicles are parked outside a multi-storey apartment block following a reported drone attack in Moscow, Russia. Instead, it appeared to strike near the heart of Russia’s political and economic elite. A view shows a damaged multi-storey apartment block following a reported drone attack in Moscow, Russia. But it’s clear that the drone strikes are an embarrassment to the Russian military, regardless of how the remotely piloted vehicles were launched.

A lawmaker shared a video of himself with noodles hung on his ears while watching Putin's speech. In Russia, the idiom "to hang noodles on someone's ears" means to tell lies. A spokesman for the Russian Communist Party said they would be looking into the incident. A spokesman for the Russian Communist Party, Alexander Yushchenko, said on Thursday that the party would be investigating the noodle video and "won't leave it without attention," The Telegraph reported. "This is an odd, to put it mildly, escapade which would be more suitable for a Ukrainian, not a Russian lawmaker," Khinshtein said, according to The Telegraph.
☆ Russia moves to ban 'LGBT propaganda' among all ages
  + stars: | 2022-10-27 | by ( Caleb Davis | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
[1/3] People take part in the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) community rally "VIII St.Petersburg Pride" in St. Petersburg, Russia August 12, 2017. Under the legislation, citizens could be fined up to 400,000 roubles ($6,500) for promoting "LGBT propaganda". LGBT Network, which offers legal aid, has called the bill an "absurd" attempt to humiliate and discriminate against the LGBT community. "In fact, what is happening is the total state abolition of LGBT+," a representative from LGBT Network told Reuters. TikTok, a video-sharing app, was fined 3 million roubles this month for promoting "videos with LGBT themes", while Russia's media regulator asked publishing houses to look at withdrawing all books containing "LGBT propaganda" from sale.
