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

Mike Tyson has teased another potential boxing comeback by showing off his explosive speed and power in a training clip.Footage emerged this week showing The Baddest Man on the Planet still ruthlessly working the pads in training alongside his coach Rafael Cordeiro.Tyson looked as ferocious as ever in a clip posted by the official ESPN Ringside account, delivering a combination of vicious body shots to Cordeiro at bewildering speed.And the boxing icon could be set for a second return to the ring after convincingly showing he hasn’t lost his edge, despite now being 55 years of age.Tyson made a sensational return to the sport in November 2020 - more than 15 years after announcing his retirement.He faced fellow American legend Roy Jones Jr, 53, in a eight-round exhibition bout which ended in a draw, selling 1.6million pay-per-view packages in the process.It was Iron Mike that appeared the fitter as the fight approached the latter rounds and the pair slugged it out.Do you think Mike Tyson will return to the ring a second time? Let us know in the comments section.His impressive display led to speculation earlier this year that he was in talks for a big money fight with YouTuber and social media star Logan Paul.However, negotiations broke down due to a reported disagreement over the financial side of the bout.It appears now that Tyson may still be holding out on one more potential fight by keeping sharp in the ring.The legendary former heavyweight boxing champion spends his days podcasting and earning a whopping £500,000-a-month from his cannabis empire.But if his impressive latest training clip is anything to go by, the heavyweight could deal some serious damage to his next opponent, whoever that may be.
