War in Ukraine
Ukraine does not have nuclear weapons. But with U.S.-made ballistic weapons heading toward Russia, "anything can happen," said Rice. Artillery being fired into Russia cannot be allowed to be confused for a nuclear strike, particularly as Ukraine has been targeting Russian radars designed to detect nuclear strikes, he told Newsweek. However, Matthew Savill, military sciences director at the London-based Royal United Services Institute think tank said that while ATACMS missiles are tactical ballistic missiles, they are a lot smaller than nuclear-armed ballistic missiles, and Russia knows Ukraine does not wield nuclear weapons.
