Horror map shows what happens if Russia nukes UK city after Putin ally's threat

Vladimir Putin has been warned by his a counterpart to unleash nukes across the UK - and a new map shows exactly where he'd like to do it.

These shocking plans were put forward by 73-year-old advisor Sergei Karaganov, who has been dubbed as 'Professor Doomsday'. His role as honorary chairman of the Russian Council for Foreign and Defence Policy has given him the power to insist harsh tactics to avert any sort of conflict between the US and Russia.

Meanwhile, TV propagandist Vladimir Solovyov, who also stands as a strong advocate for nuclear strikes, laughed in a TV segment as he called for bothOxford and Cambridge to be bombed, in order to wipe out elite brits and their universities. He said: "Seriously speaking, we've never analysed this issue. We can't seriously think that the bunch of idiots who actually hold power there, pretending to be prime ministers, are actually in charge.

"We understand perfectly well that the Royal Family shouldn't be allowed within cannon shot of feeding the birds." While it seems unlikely that the Russians will kick start a nuclear war against the UK, it's interesting to imagine what that threat that could pose on its towns and cities.

NuclearSecrecy.com houses a tool called known as the Nuke Map, which works to deliver a fair estimate on the damage caused by nuclear weapons. Created by Alex Wellerstein, who works as a science and nuclear weapons professor at the Stevens Institute of Technology, the site offers different tools, including an 800-kiloton nuke, that we known to be currently sitting in Russia’s arsenal.

Using predictions it shows that if dropped over Cambridge, the results would be catastrophic. This nuclear fireball would go on to cover a radius of 2.97km squared, which also includes the suburbs of Grantchester, Milton and Teversham as well as the main campus at Cambridge University.

“Maximum size of the nuclear fireball; relevance to damage on the ground depends on the height of detonation, " Nuke Map claims. "If it touches the ground, the amount of radioactive fallout is significantly increased. Anything inside the fireball is effectively vaporised.”

It's second zone would be the 'moderate blast damage radius', that would see an area of 134Km2, where buildings would begin to collapse fires start to break out. The map explains: “At 5 psi overpressure, most residential buildings collapse, injuries are universal, fatalities are widespread.

"The chances of a fire starting in commercial and residential damage are high, and buildings so damaged are at high risk of spreading fire. Often used as a benchmark for moderate damage in cities.”

Further from the point of impact, is the third zone, at 384km2. The nuke map shows that this zone wouldn't have an easy time either. It states: “Third degree burns extend throughout the layers of skin, and are often painless because they destroy the pain nerves. They can cause severe scarring or disablement, and can require amputation.”

The remaining zone that sits around the edge of Cambridge would be the light blast damage radius. This could still cause injuries to the population who may come up to a window after seeing a flash explosions as they travel faster than the pressure wave.

Oxford will have similar results, according to the map's predictions, with the inner zone becoming instantly vaporised, and that area includes the famed main campus of Oxford University. The damage would stretch as far out as Woodstock and Bicester.

Although, the UK Government's website stresses that its nuclear deterrent would avoid such damage. It states: “The UK’s independent nuclear deterrent has existed for over 60 years to deter the most extreme threats to our national security and way of life, helping to guarantee our safety, and that of our NATO allies."

“It may sometimes feel that these threats are far removed from our daily lives, but the UK must have the capability to protect itself and our NATO allies. Deterrence plays a key role in keeping the public safe, and to abandon our nuclear deterrent would put us all at greater risk.

“Since April 1969, the Royal Navy has maintained continuous at sea deterrence, with at least one nuclear-armed ballistic missile submarine patrolling the seas undetected at all times, ready to respond to the most extreme threats to the UK. Their fundamental purpose is to preserve peace, prevent coercion, and deter aggression.

“This continuous at sea deterrent (CASD) is the most capable, resilient, and cost-effective platform on which to deploy our independent nuclear deterrent.”
