Russian cruise missiles could strike the UK within an hour if NATO intervenes directly in Ukraine, an expert warns.Kalibr class cruise missiles have a range of around 1,500 miles and can be launched from frigates and submarines.Experts have now said that if the missiles were used against the UK they would most likely be directed against infrastructure targets such as power stations and communications networks.Dr Sidharth Kaushal, a research fellow for sea power and missile defence at the Royal United Services Institute, described the missiles as a rough equivalent to the Tomahawk missiles used by the Royal Navy and United States.The missiles can reach twice the speed of sound before they reach their target, meaning that it's possible you would not hear one coming until after it hit.Dr Kaushal nonetheless said that the missiles would have to be used against particular targets as the Russian arsenal is "large but not limitless".He told inews: “If Nato did get involved in a war with Russia, but I don’t think it will, the first step would be conventional cruise missiles against Nato countries rather than going straight to the nuclear button, but that risk still remains.”He said it could also be difficult for ships to get within range of the UK due to actions by NATO forces, and added that any bombers trying to get to the UK would have to get past Scandinavia and "would expect interception".Dr Kaushal also said that although the UK does not have a missile defence system as sophisticated as countries such as Israel with its Iron Dome system, there is still a strong network of defences that could intercept incoming missiles and planes.These include the navy's type 45 destroyers, which have anti-air capabilities, and a system

Vladimir Putin’s "secret girlfriend" is living a life of luxury in a Swiss chalet with locals ordered to keep a lid on her location, an insider has claimed.Alina Kabaeva, an Olympic gold medal-winning gymnast, reportedly travelled to a “very private and very secure” chalet near Lugano with her and Putin’s young children as Russia was invading Ukraine.The 38-year-old was once described as “Russia’s most flexible woman” and is believed to be the mother of Putin’s two sons and a daughter – or possibly two twin daughters.A source in the Swiss city told the Daily Mirror: “Before the coronavirus pandemic there was often gossip about Putin’s mistress being in town.“They are known to have strong connections here, but anyone who knows them has been sworn to secrecy.“While Russia falls apart because of the sanctions, this is the perfect place for Putin to send Alina and their kids.”Claims of Putin’s links to Lugano first surfaced seven years ago, when in February 2015, a local TV station reported that Kabeava had given birth at a private VIP maternity clinic in Sorengo, on the peripheries of the city.They were said to have reserved two rooms at the discreet private maternity hospital Clinic Sant’Anna – a favourite of wealthy Russians.To stay up to date with all the latest news, make sure you sign up to one of our newsletters here.One suite was for the birth, while the second was for family and bodyguards.According to insiders, President Putin was present.The Kremlin dismissed the rumours, as it does any query about Putin’s private life.Kabaeva, one of the most decorated rhythmic gymnasts in history, has never confirmed whether they have one daughter, or twin girls, nor has ever addressed claims they got married in a secret

Russian troops abducting a Ukrainian mayor after he "refused to cooperate with the enemy" which officials have since branded a war crime. The State Service of Special Communications and Information Protection of Ukraine uploaded the clip following the frightening kidnap on Friday (March 11).In the video, a person can be seen being escorted out of the city's crisis centre by a team of around ten Russian troops while his head is covered in a black bag.President Volodymyr Zelensky compared the soldiers to “ISIS terrorists” following the release of the footage, believed to show the abudction of the mayor of Melitopol, Ivan Fedorov.“They have transitioned into a new stage of terror, in which they try to physically liquidate representatives of Ukraine’s lawful local authorities," he said in a video on Friday.It has been reported that the prosecutor’s office of the Luhansk People’s Republic, a Moscow-supported rebel region in eastern Ukraine, alleged there was a criminal case against the mayor and accused him of “terrorist activities.” However Ukraine's Foreign ministry refuted the claims and said the abduction was a war crime before urging Ukraine's allies to add pressure on Russia in response to the ongoing attacks and the kidnap, reports New York Post.

Strictly Come Dancing is said to have some tension behind the scenes as the professional dancers are reportedly divided about the return of the Russian dancers.According to the Sun, some of the dancers are calling on producers to make a decision about whether Katya Jones and Luba Mustuk, both 32 and born in Saint Petersburg, should return for the next series.Fellow professionals Nikita Kuzman, 24, and Nadiya Bychkova, 32, are of Ukrainian descent.A source told the Sun: "Tensions are high and there’s a lot of strong feeling about this, some of the dancers would want producers to make a decision and say, 'You can’t come back for the next series.'"Some of the professionals feel it’s in bad taste to have them on the show, it’s been discussed among a group of them and they are concerned about it affecting the programme and causing a backlash."The insider added: "Given they’re on the biggest show on television they are already open to criticism and they worry that this would only invite controversy." However, it has been said some of the other dancers have felt it would be unfair for Katya and Luba to be excluded based on their nationality, with the insider adding the pair have done "nothing wrong" and are "gutted" by the conflict in Ukraine. Daily Star has contacted a representative for Strictly Come Dancing for comment.

Asda despite the desperate efforts of an off-duty paramedic to save her.Poppy Reardon, 3, had been on a trip to the supermarket with her parents on August 10 2021 getting supplies for a camping trip the next day when the awful incident occurred.An inquest into Poppy's death heard that the tot had "choked on a foreign object" which she had "bitten off" her dad's hooded top, the Liverpool Echo reports.The court heard that Poppy was being carried by her father when she began biting at the plastic toggle on the top, also called a cord lock.Coroner Julie Goulding said Poppy had "accidentally asphyxiated when she choked on the toggle she'd bitten off a top worn by her father."She went on to say that despite the efforts of paramedics, which continued on her arrival to the hospital, it "was not possible to resuscitate her".David Fitzmurphy, an off duty paramedic, told how he was shopping at the store with his partner during the incident but had stepped outside to make a phone call.His partner alerted him to a baby choking and "going blue" on one of the aisles and said that he ran to help.The off-duty paramedic began mouth-to-mouth immediately but said it "felt like it wasn't going in".Poppy's parents, Rhian Reardon and Conor Mulhaney (known as Conor Clarke), were "really distressed" and also tried to help their choking daughter.An off-duty operating department practitioner started CPR until paramedics arrived at the scene before the young girl was taken to Alder Hey Hospital.After seeing the incident unfold on the podium cameras, security guard Neil Brown also said he called for a first aider to attend the aisle.Tragically when the ambulance service arrived, the three-year-old was already in cardiac arrest and not breathing.Upon

The old saying goes, “When you make a plan, God laughs.” And while not all of us believe in a higher power, there’s no doubt life can be wildly unpredictable. Indeed, if these past two years have taught us anything, it’s that we never know what’s around the corner. During the pandemic, we got used to government restrictions and more recently we’ve faced global political instability.

We may be taking a break from the title race for Scottish Cup weekend but things look set to go right down the wire.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film CriticThe pop-music world, in many ways, has only gotten angstier (it would be hard to imagine a mood-poet chanteuse like Billie Eilish commanding arenas 20 years ago). But even back in the ’90s, Sheryl Crow was the kind of straight-up, middle-of-the-strike-zone, tasty-licks virtuoso of rock ‘n’ roll good times who seemed to have been put on earth to make people happy.She was at the forefront of a revolutionary wave of women in pop — the Lilith Fair generation, from Alanis Morrisette to Sarah McLachlan to Shawn Colin to Paula Cole — but she was also, you could argue, one of the last great rockers to work in the heart-on-the-sleeve, guitar-riffs-on-air tradition of Bruce Springsteen and Tom Petty.

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich the ‘green light’ to press ahead with the sale of the Stamford Bridge outfit.Abramovich has been sanctioned due to his ties with Russian President Vladimir Putin and his assets have been frozen.However, The Athletic have revealed that talks between Raine, who are the US bank in charge of selling the Blues, and the government have been held and the process of selling the club can now resume.They go on to state that the club are confident that they can get a deal over the line within the ‘next four to six weeks’ due to the high levels of interest from potential buyers.Chelsea are currently operating under a ‘special licence’ which means that staff are still being paid and season ticket holders are still able to attend home fixtures.However, the club are not able to sell tickets (home and away), sell merchandise, buy or sell players and they are also unable to negotiate contracts with players already on their books.Thus, some of their star players could now leave at the end of the season as their current deals are coming to a close.Understandably, the sanctions on Abramovich has shaken Chelsea. But Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has continued to be open about the situation and has even confirmed his desire to remain in the Stamford Bridge dugout despite the ongoing saga, says the Telegraph.
