☢️ Russia has been training to launch nuclear strikes on targets in Europe, according to classified documents seen by the Financial Times

The maps, prepared between 2008 and 2014, contain targets for strikes with both conventional and nuclear missiles. The targets are military installations and critical infrastructure. In addition to Europe, the documents outline scenarios of possible conflicts with countries currently friendly to Russia - Turkey, Azerbaijan, Iran, China, and North Korea.

In the plan, the Russian military noted the "advantages of nuclear strikes in the early stages of conflicts" and mentioned the option of a "demonstration strike" - detonating nuclear weapons in a remote area to intimidate Western countries.
