Track marks can be seen in Ukrainian back yards as the tanks attempted to protect themselves, but with little effect. Osmayev spent years in prison in Ukraine after being of the assassination plot. The Kremlin did not immediately comment on the verdict. It has previously said that it has no information about the trial and that the absence of a diplomatic mission in Ukraine limits its ability to provide assistance. Since then, he has been seen to grip the arms of chairs and corners of tables in what some believe to be an effort to disguise any shaking. In 2012, a former public schoolboy in Britain was arrested in the Ukrainian port city of Odessa in connection with a foiled plot to assassinate Putin. Kyrylo Budanov said there was an attempt to kill the Russian President after he ordered the invasion of Ukraine Budanov did not directly link the assassination attempt to the Ukraine war, and Putin has a number of well-established enemies in the region from previous conflicts. Putin is said to be fearful of assassination since declaring war, after hit squads were sent into Ukraine to take out President Zelensky in the early days of the conflict. '[It was an] Absolutely unsuccessful attempt, but it really happened… It was about 2 months ago,' Budanov said. - Kyrylo Budanov, the head of the Chief Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine's Ministry of Defence, said there was an attempt to kill the Russian president

Ukraine Intel Chief Says Someone Tried to Assassinate Putin in March (19FortyFive)

Ukrainian Chief of Defense Intelligence Kyrylo Budanov claimed that Russian President Vladimir Putin survived an assassination attempt two months ago.

Lost in the news of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine was the fact that tensions were flaring again over the disputed region. His work was regularly featured in the Millbury-Sutton Chronicle and Grafton News newspapers in Massachusetts. Further, the region is still reeling from the 2020 war between Azerbaijan and Armenia, a close ally of Russia’s, over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region. In an interview with the British press, he claimed that there would be regime change in Russia by the end of the year. Considering the many foreign fighters in the region, including adherents of ISIS and al Qaeda, they could have been the ones targeting Putin. In 2012, they captured Abu Khalid, a long-serving member of the Ansar mujahedeen in Southern Russia. Abdullah al-Turki, another Islamist insurgent, was killed.

Putin 'survived secret assassination attempt' at start of Ukraine war (Metro)

The Russian President was targeted two months ago in the Caucasus mountains, Ukraine's chief of defence intelligence, Kyrylo Budanov said.

During the course of the war, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has remained in Kyiv, despite the Ukrainian capital being subjected to a barrage of bombing. The Kremlin despot was targeted in the Caucasus – a mountainous region occupied by Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan and south-east Russia – according to the head of the Chief Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defence in Ukraine, Kyrylo Budanov.

Putin faced assassination attempt? What (little) we know (THE WEEK)

Claims by a Ukrainian official about an assassination attempt on Russian President Vladimir Putin have raised eyebrows.

Dr Leonid Petrov, a visiting fellow of Australian National University, told news.com.au that a potential attempt on Putin's life was most likely to come from his security services, the people closest to him. The claim by Budanov is being seen as the sixth time Putin has faced a assassination attempt. Australia-based news.com.au reported “One plot was foiled by Russian intelligence shortly before the 2012 presidential election in Russia. Several men were arrested in the Ukrainian port city of Odessa after being tasked with killing Putin by Islamist Chechen rebels. So were anyone to attempt to do something like that it would be a hugely complex operation.” There was no publicity about this event, but it took place.” Ukrainska Pravda made the claim in a teaser of the interview, which it claimed would be be published in full on Tuesday.
