The Human Cost Of A Russian Attack Would Be Enormous, According To Biden

According to US President Joe Biden, a Russian strike on Ukraine is "still very much a possibility," and the human cost would be "immense."

He added in nationally televised remarks that the US was prepared to respond severely to such a move.

According to Mr. Biden, Russia has amassed 150,000 troops on Ukraine's borders.

Russia has announced the withdrawal of part of its troops. It stated on Wednesday that military drills in Moscow-annexed Crimea had come to a halt.

"Units of the Southern Military District are transferring to their permanent deployment places after completing tactical exercises," the defence ministry said in a statement, without specifying how many troops were departing.

Military vehicles appeared to be crossing the bridge to leave Crimea in footage shown on official television.

Western leaders, on the other hand, are apprehensive, with Nato stating there are no signs of a de-escalation yet.

"On the contrary," said Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg, "it looks that Russia's military build-up continues."

His statements, made before of a meeting of the military alliance's defence ministers, followed Vice President Joe Biden's comments on Tuesday, in which he stated that Russia's withdrawal "would be nice" but that it had not yet been verified.

"Indeed, our analysts indicate that they remain in a highly menacing position," added the president.

Ukraine also said on Tuesday that the websites of its defense ministry and two banks had been hacked. Although the reason is unknown, Ukraine has previously experienced large-scale attacks on its online infrastructure and has blamed Russia.

However, Russia's leadership has denied any involvement.

There has long been concern that, rather than launching a full-scale invasion, Russia could destabilize Ukraine through less obvious measures, such as cyber-attacks on important infrastructure. President Biden stated that the US would retaliate to any such action.

After industry organizations called for remaining limits and tests to be lifted, ministers are finalizing revisions to the trip Covid testing requirements. According to Star TV, the government may eliminate the requirement for people to take a test two days before coming in the UK. Airlines have claimed that passenger testing is having little real impact, despite data released last week indicating that one in every 25 individuals in England has the virus. Compulsory testing, they claim, has slowed the sector's recovery.

  A groom with terminal cancer collapsed and died at the altar as his horrified bride walked down the aisle with their son. Father-of-eleven Paul Wynn, 57, from North Ayrshire, Scotland, collapsed at Saltcoats town hall last Friday just minutes before he was due to be wed to Alison Wynn, his partner of 21 years. Mr Wynn was originally diagnosed with cancer in May but had only been informed it had turned terminal eight days before - prompting him and his partner Alison, 36, to tie the knot before he died. He was given between six weeks and two months left to live via doctors, who told him his pancreatic cancer had spread to his liver and lungs. However, he collapsed just as Alison – who changed her surname by deed poll a few years ago – walked toward him during their wedding ceremony with first-aiders unable to revive him. Alison described him as a 'fantastic dad' in a heartfelt tribute following his unexpected death. She additionally revealed that her partner hadn't receive...
