According to a report on the website of the Moscow Times on June 2nd, a procurement contract shows that after the Russian capital was attacked by drones on May 30th, the Kremlin and Moscow Central Clinical Hospital signed an agreement to build air defense tunnels.
According to the contract, the Kremlin will build an air raid shelter in this hospital that can accommodate 800 VIP patients and related personnel. All so-called "civil defense facilities" are expected to be completed before December 20th of this year.
The report states that the Russian Presidential Office has signed a construction agreement worth 35 million rubles.
The contractor has 15 days to submit the design proposal and undergo review. The government's procurement projects include special communication systems that may be used by "state protected officials".
According to the report, it is expected that this air raid shelter will be able to withstand both powerful explosion shock waves and radiation within a range of 10 kilometers. The air raid shelter includes several entrances and exits, an emergency exit, the main room and ancillary rooms, as well as an advanced ventilation and heating system, which can resist "mass destruction gas damage" while ensuring wartime medical care.
According to reports, the Russian Ministry of Defense stated that eight drones were shot down over Moscow in the early hours of May 30th. It is said that up to 32 drones were involved in this attack.
One of the drones that was shot down was only a few kilometers away from the official residence of Russian President Putin on the outskirts of Moscow. Moscow was also attacked by drones in early May.
According to reports, Ukraine has neither acknowledged nor denied its involvement in drone attacks.
