Vladimir Putin is more dangerous than ever as he's "cornered like a rat" by the Ukrainian army, a political scientist has warned.
Professor Mark Galeotti said yesterday's vicious bombardment of Ukraine - which killed at least 19 people and wounded another 105 - demonstrates how desperate the beleagured tyrant is to claw back from his army's embarassing performance in recent weeks.
On Monday, missiles rained down on Ukraine in Moscow's biggest blitz since the initial invasion in February, and came just days after a suspected truck bomb blew off a huge section of Crimea's Kerch bridge, one of the tyrant's pet projects.
