ONE of Vladimir Putin’s top allies narrowly escaped death after Ukrainian missiles hit an office just minutes after he left. Vyacheslav Volodin, 58, was reportedly meeting separatist officials in Donetsk when he was targeted. The Ukrainian strike reportedly missed Vyacheslav Volodin, 58 (right) because they were fired too late The uber-loyalist hardline politician is speaker of the Russian parliament – and has previously been tipped as a possible Putin successor. According to Russian newspaper Kommersant, missiles hit the private office of Denis Pushilin, the leader of the pro-Putin puppet state Donetsk People’s Republic. The office was destroyed in the strike just “minutes” after they left. Pictures from the scene show significant damage on the upper floor of the building. Volodin is the man who will ultimately decide the fate of British fighters in Ukraine – currently sentenced to execution by firing squad in the Russian puppet states, while others are facing trial.
