Putin plays with f ire in his new doctrine
Of late Vladimir Putin has shifted Russia’s nuclear doctrine to a more directly and openly retaliatory posture in response to any attack by Ukraine or any NATO country using longer-range US missiles.
At least 11 people were killed after a rain-triggered landslide hit China’s Hunan province, the provincial emergency command centre said on Sunday.
The landslide, which hit Yuelin Village in the city of Hengyang at approximately 8 a.m. Sunday, washed away part of a residential house, causing 18 people to be buried, Xinhua news agency reported.
As of 11.30 a.m. Sunday, rescuers had found 17 people, among whom 11 were dead and six others injured.
