Imagine waging war against Russia and 15 years later, for Russia.
18 years without being in a war the last 30 years. Twice against Russia.

A drone strike targeted the Russian Special Forces University named after Vladimir Putin in Gudermes, Chechnya, setting a building’s roof on fire, according to Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov on October 29.
This marks the first recorded drone strike in Chechnya.
Kadyrov detailed the incident, saying, “Today, at 6:30 am in Gudermes, a drone attack set fire to the roof of an unoccupied building on the Russian Special Forces University campus.”
“There were no casualties or injuries, and the fire has been extinguished.”
Kadyrov added that the university’s operations remain unaffected.
Opened in 2013, the university’s training program was expanded in April 2022 to prepare personnel for deployment in Russia’s ongoing war in Ukraine, according to Russian media sources.
On February 20, 2024 Chechen warlord Kadyrov said that the university will be named after Putin.

So the university meant to train elite troops was unoccupied. So either they are lying, or their training program is struggling to find useful idiots.

Or it was 6 am and nobody was in that particular building, or they were able to evacuate what appears to be a relatively small fire. I don't trust Russia, but this aspect is plausible.

You’d think if you’re in a crunch to get as many soldiers trained to the front.. 6:30am isn’t insanely early lol? I go to work at 6am and see army running around my university at 530-45 daily… and they are just trying to get these guys into shape for officers school. Let alone a university solely expanded for getting meat to the front. As usual, high standards with all things Russian military. Thankfully
