Vladimir Putin has been pegged to launch what is known as “suicidal strikes” in a matter of days, as part of a “drastic” last-ditch effort to salvage his failing war effort.

Harry Kazianis, a war strategy expert, told Express.co.uk that Putin needs to try and win the war “in the next 60 days”. If he fails, Mr Kazinis said, his “regime is in trouble”. The pressure mounting on Putin could lead him to launch a form of “suicidal strike”, a style of attack which involves accepting high numbers of casualties in order to progress in the war effort.
The Russian army has made limited progress in its war against Ukraine, which has now passed the six-month mark.
Putin’s forces have suffered humiliating losses, with Kyiv claiming to have killed as many as 44,000 soldiers and destroyed 1,800 tanks.
Speaking about the ailing war effort, Mr Kazianis told Express.co.uk: “Putin is in a situation where he has to try and win the war in the next 60 days.”
