Damn. They could be hitting the Kremlin?

I'd guess the Kremlin has an air defense system and either the drone or the projectile would be shot down before it could do damage

And even if not, that seems just inflammatory and way more easily harnessed for huge propaganda wins for Putin & co, as opposed to suffocating like hitting refineries, airfields or other similarly painful and impactful but also further-from-the-everyday-people’s-minds-and-eyes targets.

if putin would be in the kremlin during the attack, he wouldn't be able to use it for propaganda ☠ but I doubt he's in there often. probably hiding most of the time, then do a few surprise appearances so he can't get ambushed.
