Environmental impact of war

In the wake of the war in Ukraine, the port at Wilhelmshaven has emerged as a critical hub for German efforts to break the country's dependence on Russian energy. It is there, on the North Sea coast, that officials would like to build a giant new terminal to import liquefied natural gas from other sources.

A 250-kilogram aerial bomb from the Second World War has been discovered in Nova Gorica, a city on the border with Italy. Slovenian technicians are expected to attempt to defuse it on Sunday but since nearby residents will have to be evacuated on both sides of the border they are coordinating their plans with Italy.

In the announcement of the Russian Embassy in London, the statement of the Deputy British Defense Minister James Heappey about sending weapons with depleted uranium to Ukraine is recalled. According to the embassy, Heappey's words show the ruthless policy of the Anglo-Saxons on the general escalation of the "conflict through intermediaries" that they initiated in Ukraine.

Lavrov said at a press conference in New York that some say that depleted uranium is not radioactive and that it is not included in the lists of the International Atomic Energy Agency, but that there are facts and interviews with people who suffered from the consequences of such missile attacks in the former Yugoslavia, in time of NATO bombing.

If we are talking about some serious offensives linked to the attempt to recapture Crimea, it is absolutely clear that this is the reason for using all means of protection, including those provided for by the doctrine of nuclear deterrence, Medvedev said in an interview with Russian media.
He pointed out that it is obvious that there is a reason for the use of any weapon.

In the latest in a series of Moscow reactions to Great Britain's announcement to send depleted uranium ammunition to Ukraine, the Russian Defense Minister reminded today that such ammunition was also used by NATO during the bombing of Serbia in 1999, and that it had a negative impact on the health of NATO soldiers.

Military personnel from the Naval Forces (VMS) destroyed today, January 3, an unexploded ordnance found on the beach in the town of Obzor, Burgas Region.

The lawsuit was filed by the law office from Nis, in cooperation with the Italian lawyer, who managed to prove that 70 Italian soldiers contracted cancer because of being exposed to depleted uranium during their stay in Kosovo.

The unexploded bomb is found in an area with many shops, restaurants, bars and offices

British police have isolated one of the busiest parts of central London after an unexploded WWII bomb was discovered at a construction site.

The participants in the event, which was also attended by a Serbian delegation, said that it was time to hear the truth, and that NATO should never again use depleted uranium - as it had done during the 78-day bombing of Serbia in 1999.
