Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu is apparently concerned that Ukrainian attacks could hit the capital: as photos on social media show, an anti-aircraft system has been set up on the roof of the Defense Ministry. The Pantsir-S1 that is there now weighs 35 tons and costs about 15 million euros.
Striking upgrade on the roof of the Ministry of Defense in Moscow: The system, which weighs several tons, was recently lifted onto the roof of the Ministry of Defense by a huge crane. The Pantsir-S1 can attack air targets within 20 kilometers. It was apparently installed to repel direct attacks on Russia’s capital.
A Panzier-S1 is also said to have been deployed on the roof of an administration building near the Kremlin. Apparently, the Russian government fears that Ukrainian drones or missiles could target Moscow.

Germany aids in reconstruction
Berlin told Ukraine to strengthen society’s resilience and for reconstruction. In concrete terms, this involves around 52 million euros for power supply, room heating, medical care and municipal administration. “The supply of electricity, heat and water, especially now in the dead of winter, is one of the factors determining the resilience of Ukrainian society in this war,” said German Development Cooperation Minister Svenja Schulze during a visit to the port city of Odessa. .
