Vladimir Putin ordered the execution of two Brit fighters imprisoned in Donetsk because Russians are terrified of elite UK troops, an expert has claimed.
After a three-day sham trial, Aiden Aslin and Shaun Pinner were issued death sentences by the supreme court of the rebel-held Donetsk People's Republic.
The pair were sentenced alongside a Morrocan-born soldier and all three have just one month to appeal the court's decision.
