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.
One person was killed and 31 others were injured after a gas leak in a chemical factory in China's Xinjiang Uygur region, local authorities said on Thursday.
The high-temperature gas leaked while workers were conducting pipeline maintenance at the Xinjiang Yihua chemical industry company in Changji Hui prefecture at around 7 p.m. on Wednesday, reports Xinhua news agency.
Among the workers hospitalised, 18 were seriously injured, the authorities said.
