Intelligence sources have revealed The Kremlin's so-called UK hit list if a war was to break out with Russia.

It's safe to say Vladimir Putin's hasn't hid his desire to use nuclear weapons.

Amid the horrific war in Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says 31,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed at the hands of Russia's full-scale invasion.

Putin has since threatened Nato with 'World War 3' following his victory speech today (18 March), winning Russia’s presidential race with a record number of votes.

"I think that everything is possible in the modern world," he told reporters when asked about a possible conflict between the West.

"But I have already said, and it is clear to everyone, that it will be one step away from a full-scale third world war.

"I think hardly anyone is interested in this."

“Of course, we have lots of tasks ahead," he added.

“But I want to make it clear for everyone: When we were consolidated, no one has ever managed to frighten us, to suppress our will and our self-conscience.

“They failed in the past and they will fail in the future.”

Nearly 76 million voters cast their ballots for Putin, which is his highest vote tally ever, Central Election Commission chief Ella Pamfilova said.

Randall Stone, politics professor at the University of Rochester in New York, has also warned that Putin will 'probably seek to challenge US Nato allies. Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania' next and that 'he may even seek to dominate Poland'.

"The war has shifted Russian strategy and economic ties away from the West and towards China, Iran and India, so Putin can be expected to be more antagonistic to the West in the future," Stone told Newsweek.

Of course, the UK was a founding member of Nato, and if Putin was to attack us, it would cause WWIII.

Six UK towns have been named as the most likely of nine locations Putin would hit if he were to come after us.

The Daily Express reports that six towns with historical connections to the Armed Forces are most at risk, according to their sources.

This includes Aldershot, Colchester, Portsmouth, Chatham, Tidworth and Salisbury.

"The information includes details of a high-level attack in addition to a low-level strike," a Whitehall source told the outlet.

"A Russian airstrike on UK soil would, of course, be a declaration of war, both on the UK and on the rest of Nato."
