Putin allows state control of critical infrastructure after drone attacks

In response to ongoing Ukrainian drone attacks, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree allowing the government to temporarily take control of critical infrastructure if private owners fail to protect it. This measure aims to address security vulnerabilities in sectors such as energy and transportation. The decree empowers state agencies to manage affected enterprises, compelling owners to undertake necessary repairs to avoid losing control over their assets.
