EKO HOT BLOG reports that Russia’s president Vladimir Putin survived an assassination attempt at the start of his invasion of Ukraine, the head of Kyiv’s military intelligence service has claimed.
The Kremlin despot was targeted in the Caucasus – a mountainous region occupied by Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan and south-east Russia – according to the head of the Chief Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defence in Ukraine, Kyrylo Budanov.
Mr Budanov told the Ukrainska Pravda website: ‘There was an attempt to assassinate Putin.
‘He was even attacked, it is said, by representatives of the Caucasus, not so long ago.
This is non-public information.
’It was an absolutely unsuccessful attempt, but it really happened… it was about two months ago.’
He added: ‘I repeat, this attempt was unsuccessful. There was no publicity about this event, but it took place.’
Pravda said the full interview will be published on its website soon.
Reports of the assassination attempt emerged as a former M16 chief warned Putin could be removed from power and forced into a medical facility by next year.
Sir Richard Dearlove believes Moscow will ship its leader to a sanitorium as speculation continues to mount over his deteriorating health.
