Putin blames US for ‘assassination bid in Kremlin’ as despot blitzes Ukraine’s capital Kyiv with drone strikes
RUSSIA has blitzed Kyiv in revenge what they say was an assassination attempt on Vladimir Putin.
Residents in Ukraine’s capital were hit with spasms of gunfire and explosions last night.

The strikes started just after 8 pm and lasted around 20 minutes.
It comes after Moscow claimed the United States was behind the alleged attack on the Kremlin on Wednesday.
Footage showed a flying object exploding in flames overnight above the fortress in central Moscow – where the president has his office and an apartment.
Russia has since accused the US of being a direct participant in the war, intent on inflicting a “strategic defeat” on Moscow.
Washington denies this, saying it is arming Kyiv to defend itself and retake illegally seized land.
National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said: “We certainly don’t dictate to them the terms by which they defend themselves, or the operations they conduct.”
Ukraine’s president Zelensky earlier denied his country attacked Russia or Putin.
“We don’t attack Putin or Moscow. We fight on our territory. We are defending our villages and cities,” he said.
But Putin allies reacted to the alleged attack with alarming calls for revenge.
Russian authorities – who have launched a terrorism probe – claim they downed two unmanned aerial vehicles aimed at the presidential complex, where Putin is known to increasingly live during the war.
Extraordinary footage appeared to show the moment a drone exploded over the Senate Palace, with flames and smoke seen coming from the 18th-century dome at 2.27am.
Grandstands set up for the Victory Day parade on May 9 can be seen in Red Square below, in front of the fortress walls.
A second blast was seen over the rooftops at 2.43am.
Residents of the nearby Stalinist House on the river embankment said they “saw sparks in the sky and people with flashlights near the Kremlin wall after the thunderclaps”.
The Kremlin said two drones had been used in the alleged attack, but were disabled by Russian electronic defences.
British security officials believe the attack was a “false flag” operation carried out by Russia to distract Ukraine from its counteroffensive and rack up generate support back home.
Experts from the Institute for the Study of War think-tank said: “Russia likely staged this attack in an attempt to bring the war home to a Russian domestic audience and set conditions for a wider societal mobilisation.”

OpenAI Admits ChatGPT Leaked Some Payment Data, Blames Open-Source Bug
“Upon deeper investigation, we also discovered that the same bug may have caused the unintentional visibility of payment-related information of 1.2% of the ChatGPT Plus subscribers who were active during a specific nine-hour window.”
In the hours before we took ChatGPT offline on Monday, it was possible for some users to see another active user’s first and last name, email address, payment address, the last four digits (only) of a credit card number, and credit card expiration date. Full credit card numbers were not exposed at any time.
We believe the number of users whose data was actually revealed to someone else is extremely low. To access this information, a ChatGPT Plus subscriber would have needed to do one of the following:
– Open a subscription confirmation email sent on Monday, March 20, between 1 a.m. and 10 a.m. Pacific time. Due to the bug, some subscription confirmation emails generated during that window were sent to the wrong users. These emails contained the last four digits of another user’s credit card number, but full credit card numbers did not appear. It’s possible that a small number of subscription confirmation emails might have been incorrectly addressed prior to March 20, although we have not confirmed any instances of this.
– In ChatGPT, click on “My account,” then “Manage my subscription” between 1 a.m. and 10 a.m. Pacific time on Monday, March 20. During this window, another active ChatGPT Plus user’s first and last name, email address, payment address, the last four digits (only) of a credit card number, and credit card expiration date might have been visible. It’s possible that this also could have occurred prior to March 20, although we have not confirmed any instances of this.
We have reached out to notify affected users that their payment information may have been exposed. We are confident that there is no ongoing risk to users’ data. Everyone at OpenAI is committed to protecting our users’ privacy and keeping their data safe. It’s a responsibility we take incredibly seriously. Unfortunately, this week we fell short of that commitment, and of our users’ expectations. We apologize again to our users and to the entire ChatGPT community and will work diligently to rebuild trust.
The bug was discovered in the Redis client open-source library, redis-py. As soon as we identified the bug, we reached out to the Redis maintainers with a patch to resolve the issue.
“The bug is now patched. We were able to restore both the ChatGPT service and, later, its chat history feature, with the exception of a few hours of history.”
