It is possible that Russia could launch nuclear missiles at London, a former adviser to Russian President Vladimir Putin has claimed.
On whether nuclear missiles could come to London, Russian political scientist Sergei Markov claimed on BBC Radio 4s Today programme yes, it is possible.
He said the situation could be created if Great Britain continue to be aggressor against Russia, if Prime Minister of Great Britain Liz Truss still has plans to destroy Russia.
He added: People in London should understand that this threat comes from Liz Truss, who is the aggressor. Stop the war against Russia on the Ukrainian territory.

In light of that, weve collected a list of ten countries you should probably high tail it to if a third world war was to break out.
Weve based them on the Global Peace Index 2017, and a video which you can see below, that resurfaced online about the best countries to be in a WW3 situation.
Here's the top ten counties:
Ireland practises military neutrality, and has been internationally neutral since the 1930s. If WW3 does break, it will probably keep that neutrality.
Switzerland has the oldest history of military neutrality, established during the Treaty of Paris in 1815. They have not participated in a foreign war since then. Its mountains are also fortified against foreign invasion, making it an ideal place to stow away in the event of a world war.
When it comes to self-sustainability, Slovenias developing thermal, solar and hydroelectric power sources mean that if there is an international conflict, they dont need to rely on another country for energy. Coupled with the fact that they largely managed to stay out of both WW1 and WW2, we can only assume theyll continue this isolationist behaviour and steer clear of global conflicts.
An island in the south pacific ocean, Fiji is geographically in an isolated, and therefore fairly safe place. It isnt landlocked, and the government has traditionally kept out of global conflicts.
Denmark is an outlier in this list: though it may get dragged in to a war via their status in the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (on the side of Europe), it has a trump card: Greenland. The region is non-politically unaligned and fairly remote.
Austria ranks 4th out of 163 countries on the Global Peace Index 2017. If that isn't enough to entice you, note that in the areas of conflict, militarisation and society and security, it scored below 1.5 out of five.
Coming in at third in the Global Peace Index, Portugal has become, according to Politico, an oasis of stability.
Far-right populism, which is sweeping across Europe, remains largely absent in the country and they have kept out of most conflicts since the WW2, making them stable internally and externally.
One of the best things going for this country is its commitment to self-sustenance: it gets over half of its electricity from hydroelectric power, and has fertile land, making crop production possible in the event that theyre cut off from the rest of the world.
As well as its remote location, New Zealand is a solid choice for a home in the event of a world war.
Canada is the 8th most peaceful country in the world according to the Global Peace Index 2017. It scored a 1.1 out of five for domestic and international conflict, making it one of the least involved countries when it comes to war.
Iceland scored a one on the Global Peace Index, making it the most peaceful country in the world.
In addition, the country is geographically far away from powers involved in global conflict (such as America, North Korea, Russia and Iran), making it the best hiding place.
