Russia's new Khabarovsk submarine, designed to carry Poseidon nuclear torpedoes, started sea trials last week. Russian state TV suggested using the Poseidon to create a tsunami against Britain after the UK supplied drones to Ukraine. Experts say Moscow is unlikely to use the weapon, which is meant for worst-case scenarios and would lead to British nuclear retaliation.
