Ukraine war: President Biden says nuclear risk highest since 1962 – BBC News
The risk of a nuclear “Armageddon” is at its highest level since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, US President Joe Biden has said.
Mr Biden said Russia’s President Vladimir Putin was “not joking” when he spoke of using tactical nuclear weapons after suffering setbacks in Ukraine.
However, the US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan last week said that, despite Moscow’s nuclear hints, the US had seen no signs that Russia was imminently preparing to use a nuclear weapon.
In Ukraine, the war continues to claim lives with a series of Russian rocket attacks on the southern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia killing at least seven people, local officials said.

Nato is preparing for a new era of warfare, combining cheaper weapons deployed at scale with tougher air defences, one of its most senior commanders has told the BBC’s The Security Brief.
Air Chief Marshal Sir Johnny Stringer said NATO was drawing lessons from Ukraine, combining its sophisticated, expensive weapons with cheaper systems that can be deployed in far greater numbers.
This is The Security Brief, with Christian Fraser and Mikey Kay.

The Cairngorms National Park is home to a quarter of the UK’s rare and endangered species.
But in the summer of 2026 wildfire tore through 33 square kilometres of this landscape. Beneath the forest floor, fires are still burning.
Tech Now’s Shiona McCallum spent time with the team there to see how cutting-edge tech is being used to find hidden hotspots, monitor damage and help vulnerable landscapes recover.

US President Donald Trump has said he thinks “it’s time for Ukraine to get a new president” as he responded to Volodymyr Zelensky’s criticism of the US diesel deal with Russia.
The Ukrainian president warned a new deal to release millions of tonnes of Russian diesel into the US would provide Moscow with money to continue its war against his nation, calling it a gift to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Trump told reporters outside the White House on Saturday that Zelensky “wants to make problems for the world” by continuing to authorise attacks on Russian refineries.

Ukraine will resume strikes on Russian oil refineries, President Volodymyr Zelensky has said, as he accused the US of withdrawing crucial support.
He also accused the US of withdrawing intelligence-sharing on Russian strikes, and said restrictions to Starlink satellite services used by Ukraine’s military were deliberate.
Ukraine’s military relies on US early-warning alerts of incoming Russian aerial attacks to mount air defences, limiting successful strikes, while Starlink internet links are used throughout its war effort to guide drones and protect its skies.
But on Tuesday night, Starlink suddenly and unexpectedly restricted the speed at which drones could fly while still maintaining internet connection. This disrupted some battlefield “missions”, a top Ukrainian official said, and hampered Kyiv’s ability to protect itself from incoming Russian attacks.
Elon Musk, whose Space X company operates Starlink, suggested that the US government may have been behind the restrictions, adding that Starshield, the military-grade sister service to Starlink, is controlled by the US government, and “any limits on speed or usage are decided by the US military and ultimately [the US president]”.
The US government has not commented.

1234 So the dancing comic is going to cause ww 3? Is Russia faced with the same threat that America was with missiles in Cuba?
Dear Editor,
Why is it so hard to understand why Russia invaded the strategic area of Ukraine? Had Russia not removed missiles from Cuba we would have invaded Cuba even it meant WW 3! When East and West Germany merged, we assured the Soviet Union that we would not bring weapons any closer to their borders. Now we surround them with NATO members. The US has 700+ military bases around the world and spends 2.5 times more than both China and Russia combined on defense. Are we reacting so irrational and on the verge of WW3 because Ukraine has the goods on both Joe and Hunter Biden?

The most irresponsible atomic power is USA itself which has dropped two atom bombs on Japan and killed thousands of innocent peoples and still involve in many wars and unrest in the world. Second dangerous atomic power is India where Uranium is openly trade in market but no body raise voice against India.
Resia sent armed force to Ukrain then USA, Europe and other countries imposed sanctions on Russia but India occupied Kashmir with the use of 80000 armed forces since last 40 years but USA and other world do not impose sanction on India

How much money Zelensky has taken? For Zelensky, it has become an excellent business the war. Like always the ukranian people are not better off. -¿Cuánto dinero ha tomado Zelensky? Para Zelensky, se ha convertido en un excelente negocio la guerra. Como siempre, los ucranianos no están mejor. Y todavía los ukranianos pueden sufrir más. Civilians? It seems Siria or Irak. The idiots forgot Vietnam already.

Then stop the posturing Biden and get everyone around the negioiating table. But you don't actually want that do you? This ends with cumunication, concessions and conceading some victories on both sides. Which by the way WAS happerning untill Johnson convined Zelenskyy not to concead anything.

Ahh yes. When the Soviet Union attempted to expand itself a few hundred miles from the coast of Florida. USA got its knickers in a right twist over it. So much for Cuba’s sovereign right to join the Warsaw Pact. Oh but wait it’s wrong for Russia to get its knickers in a twist not wanting USA led Nato doing the same. Let that hypocrisy sink in.
