"We have a solution for Ukraine.

"There are several, yet we are getting reminded about the last resort – nuclear weapons.

"If no-one is going to hear us, and 40 countries keep helping the Ukrainian neoNazis, we will have no way back."

He continued that Putin will have "no choice" if things keep going the way they are - and it's the latest in a long line of threats from Russian media which is thought to be coming from Putin himself.

Explaining how the war weapon would demolish the entire country without warning, Kiselyov explained: "It approaches its target at a depth of 1km at a speed of 200km/h.

“There's no way of stopping this underwater drone. The warhead on it has a yield of up to 100 megatonnes.

"The explosion of this thermonuclear torpedo by Britain's coastline will cause a gigantic tsunami wave up to 500m high.

"Such a barrage alone also carries extreme doses of radiation. Having passed over the British Isles, it will turn what might be left of them into a radioactive desert.”
