      Ukraine dam disaster may not have been caused by Russia’s blasts but ‘poor maintenance’

      The destruction of the Nova Kakhovka dam and hydroelectric power plant may have been the result of “poor maintenance” by the Russian-installed authorities and shellings sustained during the past months of conflict, it has been claimed. More than 24 hours after the Ukrainian dam was destroyed, no side of the conflict claimed responsibility for the attack. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused “Russian terrorists” of the action, while Moscow denied any involvement in it. While some countries have backed Ukraine’s claim Russians were behind the dam breach, the US national security council spokesperson John Kirby said Washington “cannot say conclusively” who was responsible for the disaster. Speaking from Ukraine on Tuesday, UK Foreign Secretary James Cleverly also didn’t directly accuse Russia of the disaster,…

      Vladimir Putin could drop a nuclear bomb on Russian territory

      Vladimir Putin could drop a nuclear bomb on Russia to fight “invading partisans”. Wagner Group mercenary Yevgeny Prigozhin made the chilling prediction in his latest rant as he continues his criticism of the Kremlin amid Russia’s struggles on the battlefield in Ukraine. In his latest rambling statement, Prigozhin said: “Could they (Russia) have the vile idea of dropping a tactical nuclear bomb on their own territory? “Is that why we are retreating in the Belgorod region, allowing them to advance, because it’s frightening to throw (a bomb) at someone else’s territory but we’ll throw one on our own. “It’s a big question if the (nuclear bomb) would work properly.” Last month, Russians who are against the war in Ukraine launched…

      Pope admitted to hospital

      It comes a day after he had medical tests at a Rome hospital. The Vatican said the procedure would be under general anaesthetic on Wednesday afternoon and he would stay in hospital for “some days”. It said the 86-year-old had been suffering “recurrent, painful and worsening” symptoms caused by a incarcerated laparocele (abdominal hernia). The Pope spent three days in hospital with a respiratory infection in March – joking “I’m still alive!” when he was discharged – and last month had to skip audiences because of a fever. Two years ago, he also had 33cm (13 inches) of his colon removed because of an inflammation and narrowing of the large intestine. He is also missing part of one lung, which was removed when he was a young man…
