Ukraine war briefing: Putin boasts of nuclear-driven torpedo that would swamp cities with radioactive tsunami

Vladimir Putin said Russia successfully tested its nuclear‑propelled Poseidon torpedo‑drone, telling wounded soldiers its reactor ran during the trial and claiming it outpowers Sarmat; days earlier he touted a long Burevestnik flight. Meanwhile, Ukraine reported fierce Russian pressure around Pokrovsk but denied Putin’s claims of encirclements, as the DeepState project warned the situation was near critical after a logistics route to Myrnohrad was broken. Officials said a Russian strike wounded at least nine at a southern children’s hospital. Separately, the Kopeysk factory blast toll rose to 23, a former Ukrenergo chief was detained, and an anti‑war busker was re‑jailed.
