Putin's 'panic-stricken' officials in secret bid to end bloody war
A highly placed Kremlin official has secretly approached the West to help end the Ukraine invasion, it was claimed last night.
The secret member of Vladimir Putin ’s elite is said to have revealed the Kremlin is in panic and desperate for the bloody war to end.
Astonishing claims about the move were made in a report circulated to Western intelligence agencies.
It is believed senior officers and officials close to Putin are alarmed by biting Western sanctions and the failing economy caused by war.
Some Kremlin figures are also concerned about the increasingly alarming risks being taken such as fighting at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine.
The approach is likely to have been made to CIA contacts or Western diplomats, behind Putin’s back.
The mood in the Kremlin is said to be 'panic' as continuing sanctions invoke fear for Russia's future .
The Daily Mirror understands the leaked “situation report” is being taken seriously by intelligence agencies.
The document says: “A representative of Putin’s inner-circle sent a signal to the West about the desire to negotiate. The mood of the Kremlin elite is panic.”
The amazing claims goes on to label the unnamed Kremlin insider as “one of the pillars of the regime”.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

If Putin finds out, he might become part of one of the pillars of a bridge-building project.

Your guess is as good mine. Few in Russia know what goes on the inner sanctum of the Kremlin. No one in the West knows either.
It can also be disinformation. Until I see actions other than hearsay and innuendo, I will treat it as disinformation.

Probably more Russians smoking cigarettes near ammo dumps:
A huge explosion rocked a Russian ammunition depot on the occupied Crimean Peninsula on Tuesday morning, delivering another embarrassing blow to Moscow’s forces a week after blasts at a Russian air base in the same region destroyed several fighter jets.
A senior Ukrainian official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss the operation, said that an elite Ukrainian military unit operating behind enemy lines was responsible for the explosion, which sent up a huge fireball. Russia’s Defense Ministry said in a statement that the explosion was an “act of sabotage,” according to the Russian state news agency RIA Novosti.
The apparent attacks this month, which used covert forces behind enemy lines, underscore the inventiveness of Ukraine’s forces. Since the war began, they have adopted unconventional tactics in the hopes of leveling the playing field while trying to repel attacks from a much larger and better equipped Russian military.
After illegally annexing Crimea in 2014, the Kremlin turned the peninsula into a heavily fortified military zone that Russia’s president, Vladimir V. Putin, often describes as hallowed ground.
Since Mr. Putin ordered the invasion of Ukraine in February, Crimea has served as a key base of operations. Aircraft at Crimean bases have flown sorties over Ukraine, and ships of the Black Sea fleet based there have launched punishing rocket attacks on Ukrainian military positions and civilian neighborhoods.
Until this month, Crimea appeared well protected from Ukrainian attacks. Even Ukraine’s most advanced weapons systems do not have the range to hit Russian military targets there, and its planes are incapable of making it through Russia’s air defenses on the peninsula.
Then, last Tuesday, a series of powerful explosions ripped through the Saki air base in western Crimea, annihilating a good portion of the Black Sea fleet’s 43rd naval aviation regiment. That attack, according to a Ukrainian official, was carried out in part by special forces officers working with local partisan fighters.
