Major General Kyrylo Budanov, 36, said he is 'optimistic' defeat will spell the end for the Russian president, with 'the breaking point' in the conflict coming in the late summer. Speaking to Sky News, he said: 'Most of the active combat will have finished by the end of this year. It will eventually lead to the change of leadership of the Russian Federation. 'This process has already been launched. As a result, we will renew Ukrainian power in all out territories.'

It comes as an unnamed Russian oligarch is reported to have confessed to a Western colleague that Putin is 'very ill with blood cancer'.

General Budanov similarly claimed Putin is seriously ill, saying he is in a 'very bad psychological and physical condition and he is very sick'. Putin's health has been the subject of intense speculation since he launched his invasion, with his noticeably puffy face said to be caused by using steroids to treat cancer. Recent video clips have shown him walking with a limp, trembling uncontrollably and gripping the sides of a table while speaking to defence minister Sergei Shoigu.

The unnamed oligarch was recorded saying Putin had surgery on his back linked with blood cancer shortly before the invasion. New Lines magazine, which obtained the recording, said it was able to authenticate the billionaire's identity and voice but would not reveal their name because of reprisals. An investigation last month suggested he was under near-constant supervision by a cancer surgeon and other specialist doctors who would typically monitor a cancer patient.
