A former top Russian soldier has suggested dropping a nuclear bomb in southern Ukraine to eradicate any gains made by Kyiv’s forces in the region. Andrey Gurulev (pictured), a retired lieutenant general who is now an MP in the State Duma, Russia’s lower parliament, says Robotyne, a village recently recaptured by Ukrainian forces, would be ‘perfect’ for the use of a devastating nuclear weapon. Robotyne was successfully captured on Monday as part of a major counter-offensive being conducted against Putin ‘s forces as Ukraine pushes towards the Sea of Azov.
