In a startling turn of events, Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly suffered a “cardiac arrest” on Sunday evening, as claimed by a Telegram channel known for frequently publishing reports about the Russian leader’s deteriorating health. The General SVR Telegram channel, without substantiating its claims, also suggested that recent appearances by Putin may have been carried out by body doubles. According to the channel, doctors had to resuscitate Putin before transferring him to a specialized intensive care facility within his official residence.
However, the channel’s claim could not be verified and the Kremlin has also dismissed the report.
