International Desk: Russia has spread fear around the world by threatening to launch nuclear attacks several times after the invasion of Ukraine. Meanwhile, Russia has started preparing to counter nuclear and chemical attacks. Various instructions are given to the general public on what to do in the event of a nuclear or chemical attack.
Recently, such awareness videos are being made and promoted on digital billboards on roadsides. In addition, the Kremlin recently ordered the renovation of bomb shelters and bunkers across Russia. The country’s defense ministry has also announced plans to improve the anti-missile system. Reuters news
According to the report, the details of how to prepare a briefcase in an emergency are shown in these videos. Apart from this, the idea that equipment should be kept with food and water in critical situations is also given. When Russia is in an advantageous position in the war, the purpose of such preparations is suddenly questioned.
Residents say we have to be prepared for any situation due to the war in Ukraine. Our ministry is doing just that. This is a timely initiative. People are sitting in traffic jams watching them.
After the recent threat of a nuclear attack, these billboards related to a nuclear attack have been surrounded by questions. If so, can Russia really launch a nuclear attack? However, dismissing these fears, Moscow says that these digital billboards were installed at the beginning of the Ukraine campaign and have come to people’s attention recently.
A few days ago, the downing of a US surveillance drone in the Black Sea raised tensions between Russia and the US. In addition, the situation is becoming increasingly complicated due to the increasing supply of Western heavy weapons to Ukraine. Fears are growing that the war will spread beyond Ukraine’s borders. The common people of Russia, however, do not bother with these fears. A Russian citizen said, I believe there is no threat of a nuclear attack in our country. No such thing will happen. The government is promoting the videos to keep people alert.
Another Russian woman said, “These warnings don’t scare me at all.” I will remain as I am; I will not change anything. I think I live in the safest country in the world. I am confident about the capabilities of our army. No other country in the world has such advanced weapons as ours.
