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 eight miners have died following a coal mine accident last week in northwest China’s Shaanxi Province, rescuers said on Wednesday.
Rescue work was finished on Tuesday as the last four bodies were retrieved and pulled out of a coal mine shaft operated by the Qiaoziliang Coal Industry Co. Ltd. in Tongchuan City, according to the rescue headquarters on the site.
A total of 42 miners were working in the mine when the accident took place at 1:15 p.m. (local time) on November 4, and among them, 34 workers were lifted out safely, Xinhua news agency reported.
