VLADIMIR PUTIN COULD TURN THE UK INTO A "RADIOACTIVE DESERT" BY TRIGGERING A MASSIVE RADIOACTIVE TSUNAMI WITH THE SATAN II MISSILE, A MILITARY EXPERT HAS WARNED LEIGH MCMANUS
14:54, 21 Mar 2024 Russian President Vladimir Putin could potentially turn the UK into a 'radioactive desert' with his country-destroying Satan II missile, sparking fears of World
War 3, according to an expert. Britain might be particularly at risk due to its geographical location and the increased tensions caused by Putin's hostility towards the UK's strong
backing of Ukraine, said retired Colonel Simon Diggins. The military specialist recalls claims from the early stages of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, where it was hinted that Moscow might
fire the RS-28 Sarmat missile into the Irish Sea. READ MORE: 'RUSSIAN AGITATORS' IN CRISIS-HIT CUBA LURE COMMUNISTS TO UKRAINE WAR WITH PROPER WAGES _CLICK FOR THE LATEST RUSSIA

turning whatever remains of Britain into a "radioactive desert", reports the Mirror. The RS-28 Sarmat, also known as Satan II, is a formidable intercontinental ballistic missile
capable of obliterating an entire country with just one hit. Colonel Diggins said: "We're already in a place of real and present danger. Not next week or the week after, but in two
to three years' time. "We've got no time if we're serious about having armed forces that can deter him. We're at a minute to midnight." He added that Putin
really doesn't like Britain, so we could be in danger if Russia tries to move their army past eastern Europe. "He's got a very particular animus against us. We have been a
strong supporter of Ukraine in public and in terms of financial aid," Diggins said. "We are also the weakest link. Our defences are etiolated. We make a lot of noise but our army
is about to become the smallest it's been since the Napoleonic Wars." Article continues below At the start of this year, General Sir Patrick Sanders, who's the top army boss,
said the UK should get ready to fight, maybe even bringing back conscription if there's a big war with Russia. _FOR THE LATEST BREAKING NEWS AND STORIES FROM ACROSS THE GLOBE FROM THE
