Amid ongoing tensions with the US and West, Russia is reportedly all set to detonate a nuclear bomb in the Arctic Ocean. Rear Admiral Andrei Sinitsyn, director of an old Soviet test site in the Novaya Zelmlya archipelago, said Russia is 'fully ready' to detonate a nuclear bomb 'any moment.' He said that the testing facilities are ready and can be used immediately 'if the order is given'. This comes after Putin recently launched the biggest naval exercise in decades, "Ocean 2024." The drill was held simultaneously in the Pacific and Arctic Oceans, as well as the Mediterranean, Caspian, and Baltic Seas.
