Russian state-controlled television is warning of World War Three if Nato troops enter Ukraine. Propagandists have taken to the airwaves in Russia to say that this would involve the use of "tactical" nuclear weapons.
Leaders of Nato countries have been meeting in Brussels in recent days. The Mirror reports that speculation is mounting that Nato member country Poland could seek a mandate from the alliance for peacekeepers to enter Ukraine.
The country has so far proved more durable than many, including reportedly Moscow, had expected. But a month after Russia's invasion, its cities continue to be bombarded by air raids and President Volodymyr Zelensky has urged more action from Nato.
