Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned London against the planned delivery of depleted uranium (DU) armour-piercing tank shells to Ukraine. Vladimir Putin said that Russia would treat it as ammunition containing 'nuclear components' and would be 'forced to react' if it were supplied to Kyiv. The warning comes as Britain plans to include DU munitions in a forthcoming delivery of Challenger 2 main battle tanks to embattled Ukraine. A similar warning was issued by Russian Defence Minister Sergey Shoigu, who said the move would bring the world yet another step 'closer to a nuclear disaster.' The United Nations has already expressed alarm over the UK's plans. #russia #ukraine #nuclearwar #unitedkingdom #rishisunak #vladimirputin #depleteduranium #uranium #nuclearbomb #russiaukrainewar #britain Hindustan Times Videos bring you news, views and explainers about current issues in India and across the globe.
