Russian state propaganda has taken live to the airwaves to call for a major missile strike on London mirroring Israel’s hit on HAMAS leaders in Qatar.
The call comes amid a sharp hardening of rhetoric from Vladimir Putin’s propagandists against the West and Ukraine.
Putin’s twisted leading TV propagandist Vladimir Solovyov said Western defence ministers meeting in London should be viewed as legitimate targets by Russia.
In a rant on a mainstream channel, tightly state-controlled, he said: “Benjamin] Netanyahu says [he staged] an operation against the top leadership of Hamas. Great.
“And does it matter that this is the top leadership of Hamas that was invited [to Qatar] for negotiations? So it turns out that this is possible.
“That is, we invite negotiators and strike them…..”
Solovyov said: “Here now…..[NATO] ministers of war have gathered in London [the Ukraine Defence Contact Group, known as the Ramstein format].
“So maybe [if] they are there today or tomorrow, we can hit them?
“Well, it is possible, right? What’s the problem?
“They are making plans against us. They gathered, all of Russia’s main enemies are there now.
“Can they be hit then? Well, that’s normal….”
Ignoring the fact that Putin started a war which has killed and maimed millions of people, propagandist and attack dog Solovyov alleged: “[Volodymyr] Zelensky personally gave orders for assassinations inside our country of political figures, journalists.
“Zelensky is a terrorist who leads terrorists. Zelensky’s entire junta must be destroyed, wherever they are.
“If he goes to meet in Berlin, a [Russian] missile must fly there.
“[If he goes to] London – [we strike] London.
“Wherever he is, based on the logic that the Israeli government is now demonstrating to us, he must be destroyed.”
The propagandist is increasing his threatening calls – evidently on orders from the Kremlin.
In the past week Solovyov has demanded “frying pan in hell” nuclear attacks on Britain, and threatened to sink the UK underwater with Russia’s new high-speed atomic torpedo.
Solovyov was evidently referring to a Ramstein meeting on Tuesday involving UK Defence Secretary John Healey, German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius, and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
This pledged a £2 billion boost in military support for Ukraine.
Russian war propagandists are calling for tougher strikes in Ukraine in a week when Putin has hit a major bridge over the Dnipro River and the Ukrainian cabinet of ministers building in Kyiv.
One strike on civilians killed 23 people, mainly pensioners.
