Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has already survived more than a dozen attempts on his life.

Source: A member of the Ukrainian delegation in negotiation with the occupying country, Mykhailo Podoliak, an adviser to the Head of the President’s Office in an interview with Ukrainska Pravda.

Quote: "Foreign sources talk of two or three attempts. I believe that there have been more than a dozen such attempts. We are constantly receiving intelligence that there are certain reconnaissance groups trying to enter government quarters and the like.

We have a very strong network of intelligence and counterintelligence - they are monitoring this situation and these reconnaissance groups are being eliminated on their approach. That is to say, we are aware of their plans and our counterintelligence is taking care of the situation."

Quote: "From a security point of view, I am not at liberty to discuss certain elements. These risks still exist.

Western intelligence correctly states that the main target for Putin was Zelenskyy in terms of attacking government quarters and attempting to kill the country's key leader."

Earlier: Previously, British newspaper The Times reported that since the beginning of the Russian-Ukrainian war, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has survived at least three murder attempts.

Take a page out of Tito’s book. “Stop sending people to kill me. We have already captured five of them, one man with a bomb and another with a rifle. If you don’t stop sending killers, I will send one to Moscow and I won’t have to send another.”

I cant explain my thinking but its almost strange to put a number on this. I'd imagine its higher as well, as he is what Russia wants removed. You can almost just say Zelenskyy is still alive despite Russians efforts because I assume there are likely several plans in motion at any given time to have him assassinated. I cant imagine how Zelenskyy functions all day. I'd be a wreck curled up in a ball in a corner.

Without needing a 200 foot table either.
