Russian president is pushing troops forward into conflict at the fastest rate yet.

Putin is thought to be trying to seize as much land as possible before Donald Trump gets in the White House and pressures Moscow into a kind of peace deal.

Kremlin has not yet turned to conscription to bolster its army, out of fear such a move could make the war more unpopular.
