Putin’s $234m Yacht Flees to Arctic
The 82-meter vessel is traveling under naval protection after Ukrainian drone strikes exposed Russian vulnerabilities, according to Western analysts.
- The 82-meter yacht Kosatka, linked to Russian President Vladimir Putin, is navigating toward the northern port of Murmansk, escorted by two Russian Navy ships while being monitored by NATO.
- This relocation follows recent Ukrainian long-range drone strikes on the Russian Kronstadt naval base, where a strike hit one of Moscow's few modern warships, the RFS Boiky.
- Formerly named Graceful, the yacht features specialized anti-drone netting on its deck; German and Danish Navy patrol ships shadowed the convoy through the Baltic before its signal disappeared in the North Sea on Monday.
- Amid these concerns, Putin increased the Federal Protective Service staff tasked with his protection to 812 on Wednesday, banning staff from using internet-connected devices near him.
- Russian military command has installed anti-drone cages on submarines in Novorossiysk to counter Ukraine's growing capacity to target assets, with a fourth submarine likely receiving similar modifications in the near future.
