All 23 towns and cities in UK that have been named on Russia’s ‘target list’ amid World War 3 fears
A list of 23 UK towns and cities, reportedly designated as priority Russian targets in a potential war, has been published. This escalates global tensions amid the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
The list was shared by Dmitry Rogozin, a former Russian deputy prime minister. It identifies locations across the UK connected to defense and weapons manufacturing.
These sites are not limited to major cities. Areas hosting military bases or key suppliers would be subject to long-range strikes, following tactics seen in Ukraine.
The revelation came in response to a post by former UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace. Wallace outlined a strategy to make Crimea “uninhabitable” for Russian forces.
Rogozin posted the corresponding UK target map, stating it was useful to see the “true intentions” of others. He sarcastically advised Russian oligarchs not to send their children to study in England, calling it “deadly dangerous.”
As a NATO member, the UK could be drawn into direct conflict if Russia attacks any alliance country. This underscores the serious implications of such threats.
The exchange highlights the dangerously heightened rhetoric between sides. It points to the potential for the Ukraine war to spark a broader, catastrophic confrontation.
