Vladimir Putin has sacked 1,000 of his personal staff as he is scared that they will try to poison him, a report has claimed.The Russian president has had hundreds of his personal staff replaced over his paranoia, including cooks, secretaries, laundry workers, and bodyguards.The news comes as Putin's invasion of Ukraine moves into into its fourth week, and Russian forces have so far failed to capture Kyev.Five Russian generals have also been killed so far, with thousands of Russian soldiers also reported killed.Several private jets belonging to Russian oligarchs have also been spotted heading to Dubai, prompting questions about the domestic security in Putin's Moscow.A French agent has claimed that it is possible that Putin will be removed from power by a coup coming from within the Kremlin, with assassination being one way that this could come about.Putin has also drawn ridicule in recent weeks as he has held meetings not only with foreign leaders, but also his own inner circle from an almost comically large distance away.Given that senior political figures have publicly encouraged those close to Putin to try and assassinate him, it seems that Putin's fears are not unfounded.Senator for South Carolina Lindsay Graham tweeted publicly calling for Putin's death, saying: "The only way this ends is for somebody in Russia to take this guy [Putin] out."You would be doing your country — and the world — a great service."

Ukraine for the first time ever, as the conflict in Ukraine takes a dark turn.The Russian military says it used the Kinzhal hypersonic missile to destroy an underground ammunition depot in Delyatyn, Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast, according to local news outlet Zvezda.Details about the operation remain scarce, but Russia has previously bragged about its hypersonic weapons arsenal.Missiles such as the 3M22 Zircon are said to be so fast and able to fly so low that they evade traditional anti-missile defence systems.Such weapons are believed to have a range of around 1,000 kilometres, military.com reports.TV Zvezda - a channel owned by the Russian defence ministry - said of footage of a similar missile last week: “The Russian Zircon hypersonic missile's stealth features have been disclosed…“The speed of the Zircon hypersonic missile is so high that it prevents the opponent's air defence system from detecting its impact in time.“In fact, its launch will be known only after the target has been hit.”The missile also has “variable trajectory” to avoid detection, viewers were told.“No one will see the missile launch or its flight.
