Moscow: A £275,000 Aurus Senat limousine, believed to be part of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s official car fleet, caught fire and exploded in Moscow on March 29. The incident occurred on a street near the headquarters of Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) in Lubyanka, according to media reports.

Videos of the burning vehicle have gone viral, leading to speculation about a possible assassination attempt on Putin. The footage reportedly shows the fire originating in the engine before spreading inside the car, The Sun reported.

It remains unclear who was inside the vehicle at the time, as no injuries were reported. The cause of the fire is also yet to be determined. Witnesses, including workers from nearby bars and restaurants, attempted to assist before emergency services arrived and brought the situation under control.

Reports suggest the incident has heightened concerns over Putin’s security. Russian special services have reportedly intensified protective measures, with Federal Protective Service (FSO) officers recently seen inspecting garbage dumps and sewer drains for potential threats near a venue where Putin was speaking.

Putin, known for using Russian-made vehicles, has also gifted similar cars, including one to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. A Kremlin-linked source indicated that security around the president has reached unprecedented levels, with both visible and covert protection measures in place.
