Russian nuclear attacks could hit U.S. territories, as claimed by a Kremlin propagandist. National Defense magazine Editor-in-Chief Igor Korotchenko, who is also a military expert, explained why Russia's nuclear missiles could hit the United States.
Russian Nuclear Strike Could Hit US Territories, Warns Russia's State TV
According to Newsweek's latest report, Korotchenko shared the possibility of Russia's nuclear strikes on the U.S. during his guest on Russia 1; a state-sponsored television channel.
The military expert said that Russia received continuous threats that when it went beyond the permission lines for the use of all kinds of Russian weapons, there would be serious warfare attacks on the Crimean Bridge and other Russian territories.
He stated that Ben Hodges promises that if Russia misbehaves, the United States will not hesitate to attack the country's Black Sea Fleet (groups of Russian troops in Crimea), as well as the Russian naval base in Tartus, Syria.
Korotchenk warned that if the U.S. decided to attack Russia's civilian and military facilities, they would retaliate. However, he clarified that the nuclear attack would be a preventive, limited against the country's targets on U.S. territories.
The latest warning coming from the Russian propagandist came after the combat duty preparation for the Satan II missile had been confirmed.

Is Threat Connected With Satan II's Preparation?
Recently, the Express UK reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin put Russia's terrifying Sarmat strategic missile (aka Satan II) on combat duty.
The advanced Satan II missile is a nuclear weapon carrying up to 15 warheads. It can also carry around 24 Russian Avangard's Hypersonic Glide Vehicles (HGV).
Each of the HGVs is also capable of housing a nuclear warhead 27 times the speed of sound. Military experts warned that Russia's Satan II nuclear missiles can reach thousands of miles.
Specifically, they believe that these hypersonic rockets can target the United Kingdom in just six minutes.
"The Sarmat strategic complex has been put on combat duty," said Yuri Borisov, the head of the Russian space agency, Roscosmos.
As of writing, it is still unclear if the Russian government will consider using the Satan II missiles in case of nuclear war against the U.S.
