PUTIN DRONE DECREE LIVE | Russia to Seize Control of Damaged Private Infrastructure After Drone Strikes MOSCOW — Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree establishing a legal framework for the state to temporarily seize control of critical private infrastructure if owners fail to protect facilities from Ukrainian drone attacks or delay rebuilding them. Announced on August 24, 2026, the measure targets key sectors including fuel, energy, transport, communications, logistics, and nuclear facilities. While Russian First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov emphasized that the directive does not represent a permanent nationalization of assets, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that business owners have frequently neglected anti-drone security. Analysts view the decree as a tactical move to force private companies to finance expensive repairs and air defense measures amid escalating Ukrainian drone strikes on major oil refineries and e-commerce hubs. #live #russia #uk
