The Russian Ministry of Defense announced that a military exercise simulating the use of tactical nuclear weapons will be held near Ukraine.

It was noted that "the exercise, which will be carried out under the instructions of Russian President Vladimir Putin, will be conducted in response to provocative statements and threats made by certain Western officials." It was stated that the exercise is intended to "ensure the combat readiness of non-strategic forces."

NUCLEAR BLACKMAIL

Following this announcement from Russia, Ukrainian military intelligence spokesperson Andriy Yusov accused the Moscow administration of "engaging in nuclear blackmail."

"UNPRECEDENTED NEW TENSION"

Responding to questions from journalists in Moscow, Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov commented on the statements by Western officials, particularly French President Emmanuel Macron, regarding the desire to send troops to Ukraine, saying: "This is, in fact, putting NATO soldiers face-to-face with Russian soldiers.
