Kadyrov forces unit, aiming to kill Zelensky, eliminated NSDC Secretary
Kadyrov forces unit, which aimed to kill President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, was eliminated.
"We are already aware of the special operation that was to be carried out by Kadyrov forces unit. We received the information from representatives of Russias Federal Security Service who do not want to take part in this bloody war. The Kadyrov forces unit, which came to kill our President, was eliminated," Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Oleksiy Danilov said on the air of Ukraine 24 TV channel, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
He noted that the unit had been divided into two groups and was closely followed. According to him, one group came under fire in Hostomel, another group is at gunpoint.
"We will not give our President or our country to anyone. This is our land, get out of here," Danilov added.

Ukrainian military forces were successful in destroying a Chechen special forces column of 56 tanks near the capital of Kyiv on Saturday, Ukrainian news agency The Kyiv Independent reported. According to the report, which the outlet said was confirmed by the Ukrainian Presidents Office, the attack killed top Chechen general Magomed Tushayev, head of the 141 motorized regiment of the Chechnya National Guard. The report was not independently verified.
The Chechen special forces, referred to as Kadyrovites, after Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, were reportedly deployed by Russia to capture and kill Ukrainian leaders, including Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, according to the Daily Mail.
The Daily Mail report claimed that every soldier in the Chechen force was given a deck of cards displaying pictures of Ukrainian officials the Kremlin had deemed high valuable targets, a tool infamously deployed by the United States while hunting down targets in Iraq.
However, the convoy of 56 tanks was targeted by Ukrainian missile fire near the town of Hostomel, just northeast of Kyiv, and obliterated only a couple of days into its mission, according to reports.

I read this as a anti-war movement within Russia, hope their numbers grow and start a coup.
