'Putin cannot rely on his own military’: Russian veteran jailed after threatening armed revolt

Sky News Defence Analyst Peter Jennings says Russian President Vladimir Putin “can’t rely” on his own military amid growing unrest throughout the nation. ​“I think the most telling statistic here is that the Russians are losing between 30,000 and 35,000 people killed in battle every month,” Mr Jennings told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. ​“What this Russian individual, Alexander Lunin, has done has just pointed to the unsustainability of Russian military tactics. ​“That video was three years to the day from the Wagner Group’s brief revolution against the Russian government. ​“Lunin’s future itself is probably pretty bleak… but I think the message that Putin will be taking from it is that he can’t rely on his own military.”
