The health of Russian President Vladimir Putin has been called into question since his invasion of Ukraine as people speculate the leader has a terminal illness.
Obsessed with maintaining his 'strong-man' image, it is believed that body doubles have been put on standby for when the president undergoes surgery, according to a report.
The surgery will reportedly see Putin having to take up to 10 days off for recovery, at which time body doubles are expected to step in to make it appear as though he is still in control of the country, the anti-Putin Telegram channel "General SVR" reported.
