Kyiv urgently builds radiation bunkers as Russia conducts tactical nuclear drills close to Ukraine

Ukraine is urgently building radiation bunkers as there are growing fears Vladimir Putin could launch a nuclear attack.

Russia has started tactical nuclear drills close to the Ukrainian border which is in response to “threats” made from the West.

The Russian Defence Ministry said that the tactical nuclear exercises are taking place in the Southern Military District on the borders of occupied Ukraine.

The Defence Ministry said in a statement the exercises are to test “the readiness of personnel and equipment of non-strategic nuclear weapons combat units to respond and to unconditionally ensure the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the Russian state.”

The statement added this is in “response to provocative statements and threats by certain Western officials.”

Vinnytsia Mayor Serhii Morhunov announced that they are building anti-radiation bunkers at 10 educational facilities in the city to protect their citizens against a tactical nuclear strike.

“We have become the first in Ukraine to start building anti-radiation shelters, and work is underway in 10 educational institutions to create a safe environment for in-class learning for schoolchildren,” Morhunov said.

The Russian nuclear exercises include tactical nuclear capable Kinzhal and Iskander missiles as Putin is ready to press the button as geopolitical tensions continue to grow.

This comes after the British Foreign Secretary Lord David Cameron gave Ukraine permission to use UK weapons inside Russia.

The French President Emmanuel Macron has said that he will not exclude sending French troops into Ukraine if Russia breaks through the frontlines.

The Kremlin has said that this is dangerous and is “escalating tensions” between Moscow and NATO which is “unprecedented and requires special measures.”

Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, warned, “The chorus of irresponsible scoundrels among the Western political elite calling for troops to be sent to a non-existent country is growing.

“Now it includes representatives of the US Congress, French and British leadership, and individual madmen from the Baltic states and Poland.

“They also call for the active use of their missile weapons, which they supplied to the Banderaites, throughout Russia. And this is not a spring aggravation, but a cynical calculation for political dividends.

“There is some kind of total degradation of the ruling class in the West. This class really does not want to logically connect elementary things.

“Sending your troops to the territory of Ukraine will entail the direct entry of their countries into the war, to which we will have to respond. And, alas, not in the territory of Ukraine.

“In this case, none of them will be able to hide either on Capitol Hill, or in the Elysee Palace, or in 10 Downing Street.

“A world catastrophe will come.

“By the way, Kennedy and Khrushchev were able to understand this more than 60 years ago. But the current infantile morons who have seized power in the West do not want to understand.

“And that is why today the General Staff began preparations for the exercises, including activities for practical testing of the preparation and use of non-strategic nuclear weapons.”
