Ukrainian forces could be back in Crimea before the new year and Russia's invasion will be over by spring, a senior Kyiv military official has claimed.

Deputy defence minister Volodymyr Havrylov also said his country will not conduct peace talks with Russia until Putin's soldiers have exited every inch of Ukraine.

Mr Havrylov told Sky News during a visit to Britain that an unexpected 'black swan' event in Moscow, such as the toppling of Putin's regime, would harden the Ukrainian resolve and quicken the end of the war.
