Tensions are escalating as Russian authorities and media outlets propagate claims that Ukraine is preparing to use a 'dirty bomb' in Kursk, a move perceived by some as a potential false flag operation by Moscow. The Russian Ministry of Defense has warned of immediate retaliation if Ukraine attempts to create a radioactive catastrophe. The Russian Foreign Ministry has urged the United Nations and the International Atomic Energy Agency to condemn what it describes as provocative actions by Ukraine against Russian nuclear facilities. These developments come amid Russia's recent military setbacks in Kursk, raising concerns about the possibility of a nuclear false flag terror attack.
