Nato to hold emergency meeting as Putin threatens strikes on the West
Nato and Ukraine will hold an emergency meeting next week following Russian President Vladimir Putin's threats to strike the West. Putin indicated that Russia's new missile, the "Oreshnik," could target military facilities in countries supporting Ukraine. Putin claimed the missile could carry multiple conventional warheads and be as destructive as nuclear weapons. He announced plans for more strikes using intermediate-range ballistic missiles, stating that Russia has a stockpile ready for deployment. In response to recent attacks, Ukraine is seeking advanced air defense systems from its allies. Poland's prime minister has also raised concerns about the potential for a global conflict.
