Putin Afraid of Being Killed if He Doesn't Conquer Donbas: "They Will Hang Me"

SAPO Notícias1 September 2026 at 12:19

The president of Russia, Vladimir Putin, allegedly expressed fear that if he fails to conquer Donbas, he may be killed. This information comes in a context of escalation of violence against Ukraine.

According to reports, Putin justified the increase in military aggressiveness precisely with this personal fear. The claim that "They will hang me" allegedly was used as justification for the ongoing military actions.

The conquest of Donbas thus appears as a central objective of Russian strategy, not only for geopolitical reasons, but according to this narrative, for reasons of personal survival of the Russian leader.

"Life has not been easy at all": Carla was a single mother, went back to work at 78 and at 101 she remains "passionate" about fashion

Carla Villa, an Italian woman of 101 about to turn 102, shared her life story marked by challenges and overcoming. She was a single mother in 1967, at a time of strong social prejudices, and raised her son Thomas alone with the support of her family. She lost her brother Aldo in World War II, in the battle of the Don, in Russia. At the age of 78, she went back to work in the same space in Milan where she had previously managed an antique shop for 18 years, temporarily replacing an employee in a bridal dress shop. At 101 years old, she maintains an interest in fashion, having previously designed her own dresses, and continues to live in the same family home on Via San Marco for the past 99 years.
