Vladimir Putin cancelled a much-anticipated speech tonight (Tuesday, September 20) in which it was thought he may announce a major escalation in his invasion of Ukraine. In what was set to be his biggest address since the invasion began in February, it is thought the Russian President was going to make an announcement over mobilisation.

Ukraine, a Russia State TV host has bizarrely suggested that the West are to blame in a pro-Putin rant on TV. In the latest significant attack on innocent Ukrainian people, Vladimir Putin’s forces dropped a bomb on a shopping centre with over 1000 people inside on June 27.It is still unclear how many people have been killed or injured by the devastating assault, with Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky stressing: “It is impossible to even imagine the number of victims.” READ MORE: World War Three fears mount as NATO put 300,000 troops on high alert due to Putin Now, a pro-Putin TV host has doubled down on the incident, suggesting Russian troops had been targeting a vehicle plant nearby and warning NATO about provoking Russia further.“The Kyiv regime is showing bloody provocations to the entire world, and of course they are blaming us,” Margarita Simonyan grumbled.In the clip, translated and shared on Twitter by journalist Julia Davis, Simonyan went on to reference Bucha where horrific war crimes are alleged to have taken place despite Putin’s claims of his soldiers’ heroism.“The West is gladly spinning stories about manufactured carnage.

Vladimir Putin's bluff after suggesting over half of their nuclear missiles "do not work". The news comes after a fresh threat to the West this week, with the head of Russia's space agency claimed the country has 50 new nuclear missiles.Dmitry Rogozin, the head of Roscosmos and a close allay of the Russian president, said an array of Sarmat-2 missiles – measuring 14 storeys tall and weighing 208 tons – will be deployed by the autumn to remind the world of Russia's capabilities.But in March, three US officials with intelligence on Russian warheads claimed that around 60 percent of Moscow's missiles are in fact inoperative.Fears of a nuclear-armed conflict have been one of the main themes of the debate about how to deal with Russia after the Kremlin ordered its invasion of Ukraine back in early February.
