Sobering simulation shows nuclear strike wiping out UK as Russian propagandist threatens ‘we will kill you all’

A simulation has revealed the extent of damage that a nuclear strike would cause the UK, after a Russian propagandist said the nation would 'kill us all'.

Documents were previously leaked that seemingly exposed Russian President Vladimir Putin's potential targets across the world if he were to go nuclear, revealing some surprising locations.

A dossier of documents dated between 2008 and and 2014 were said to have plotted out Russian targets in Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Iran, China, Korea and Japan, among others, reported the Financial Times.

As for the UK, some locations that were targeted included a factory in Hull, a shipyard in Cumbria and an unknown site near Edinburgh.

Further digging found that these locations could have strong links to the nation's military, as a Royal Navy submarine shipyard is located in Barrow-in-Furness, in addition to a further shipyard in Edinburgh, where HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales were built.

These were all among 32 different areas in Europe that could be hit with a nuclear warhead if Putin were to take it there.

With an ongoing trade war and unrest between the US, NATO, Russia, and Ukraine, talks of World War 3 have resurfaced as some of Putin's allies have openly taunted and threatened the UK, among other nations.

One of these is pro-Kremlin TV anchor Vladimir Solovyov, who has not held back in talking about Brits being targeted in potential attacks.

Recently, he's told British and French troops that they 'will all die' if they were to be sent into Ukraine.

In a rant on local TV, he said: "You can station them wherever you want. We will kill you all, and we will kill you all.

"Just as we killed all of you who came to Kursk [region] and did not have time to run away or surrender. We will kill you all."

This follows the resurfacing of a simulation played on Russian TV of what would really happen if this particular warhead were to be launched off the coast of Britain.

It would cause a radioactive tidal wave, wiping out the entire country and sending it underwater.

A different news presenter, Dmitry Kiselyov, chillingly said that the 100-megaton bomb would cause a 500-metre tsunami to engulf the UK.

He added: "It will turn what is left of them into a radioactive desert, unfit for anything for a long time."

Calling Britain a 'small island', he can be heard taunting then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson into getting involved in the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Solovyov has also held up his threats towards the UK, also saying in the past that Russia could wipe Britain off the map with 'one Sarmat missile'.

Tension between the world's leading nations isn't going anywhere though, and if Putin were to follow through and attack the UK, they would be declaring a war on NATO, effectively starting the third worldwide conflict in our history.
