On the battlefield, Moscow has summoned more conscripts and reformed its forces. It features more troops, new armoured vehicles, and a new source of artillery from its allies North Korea and Iran.

With time now working in Putin's favour, Western military figures are concerned that he will soon set his sights on NATO's eastern flank and nations that, like Ukraine, were once behind the Soviet Union's Iron Curtain. If he does, is concerned that NATO may be powerless to avoid a first wave of assaults on its smaller members in the immediate Russian warpath.

However, the remarks come following three of the most devastating attacks on territories of Ukraine bordering NATO since the start of the war, killing three workers in Lutsk's western city on Tuesday morning (pictured main and stacked).

S. Krynki, Poland, 63-year-old Sáwomir Siemieniko is afraid of sitting in his tiny kitchen.

Today, Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov (main) cautioned that the war between Russia and the West is no longer hybrid, but that it was 'almost real one', as he blasted Western countries for delivering billions of dollars worth of arms to Ukraine.

Despite Russia being'most likely' from Ukraine, the White House said Wednesday that it was "fully responsible" for the explosion that killed two people in Poland, which is'most likely' coming from Ukraine. 'Whatever the final conclusions may be, it is clear that the party responsible for this tragic event is Russia, which launched a series of missiles on Ukraine specifically designed to damage civilian infrastructure,' National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said in a tweet on Wednesday.'

According to Interfax Ukraine's news service, the Ukrainian president (inset left) was quoted as having no doubt that an explosion that killed two people in Poland (bottom right) was not caused by a Ukrainian missile, and that he had based his conclusions on information from Ukraine's military, which he 'cannot but trust'.

Soldiers were seen laying the razor wire down near Szyliny village near the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad.

Soldiers were seen laying the razor wire near Szyliny village outside the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad today. In the midst of rising tensions between the two countries that are trying to avoid illegal crossings into Poland, the 8ft high and 10ft wide defenses are being installed. Russia is suspected of intentionally flooding Poland with a influx of migrants, triggering riots in the EU. NATO member states are also discussing strengthening their air defenses in the east, with Slovakia requesting additional systems from alliance allies to'safeguard even more the safety of Slovak citizens,' according to their defense minister.

In revenge for a nuclear attack on Russia, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu told Putin that the drills were supposed to simulate a'massive nuclear strike' by Russia. The exercise took place as tensions between Russia and West tensions regarding Moscow's activities in Ukraine are at an all-time peak. All tasks planned for the exercise were carried out, according to the Kremlin, and all the missiles that were tested-fired met their intended targets.

Nord Stream 1 and 2 - the continent's main gas pipes connecting the continent with Russia - were vulnerable to attack, according to the agent. The warning did not specify the time or location of the attack, and it's uncertain if Russia was suspected as a likely perpetrator. In what Western leaders described as a deliberate act of sabotage, three underwater blasts ripped both lines. The Kremlin has been under intense scrutiny since European reports briefed last night that Russia is to blame - but that there isn't yet enough hard evidence to point the finger firmly. Putin has both means and motives: Russia has the world's biggest spy submarine fleet with the ability to target underwater structures, and divers can safely drill out of the enclave on the Baltic Sea in Russia's Kaliningrad enclave. The attack occurred on the same day that a new pipeline, also in the Baltic, was opened connecting Poland and Norway's gas fields, and it could be interpreted as an alert. It also spooked markets, causing gas prices which had been down from record lows earlier this year to soaring 19%. And it comes against the backdrop of Putin's footsteps in Ukraine and the West's growing threats.
