RUSSIA could wipe out Ukraine's entire military in just 50 minutes, Vladimir Putin has claimed.
The threat came as the Kremlin blasted the UK for supporting Ukraine and supplying it with arms as fears of a Russian invasion mount.
Russian media reported that the country's deadly Black Sea Fleet and troops in Crimea could "neutralise the Ukrainian Armed Forces in between 50 and 600 minutes" if it felt it was about to be attacked.
Glavmedia Telegram cited a "high-ranking source" who told them "in the event of a Ukrainian attack on Crimea or other Russian territories, the Black Sea Fleet will completely neutralise all enemy warships and coastal military infrastructure."
This would include military bases, radio-electronic and air defences, artillery and airfields.
It continued: "A 'no-access bubble' has been deployed for such a task in Crimea, and all naval, air, artillery and missile and other assets - including airborne, tank, special and marines units - are available on the peninsula, and off Novorossiysk."
The chilling threat comes amid concerns over Russia's troops reportedly massing on Ukraine’s border sparking fears of all-out invasion.
The expert in the news report denied Russia would act first but would respond "reactively" to a perceived attack.

We may not care, London residents likely would. Like, you know, the guy authorizing the attack on Moscow.

They couldn’t even take back The Falkland Islands, if the Argies attacked again.
So basically Russia is going to wait until they can say “hey that Ukranian threw a water bottle” and then full on blitzkreig Ukraine
Why does Russia even want/need to take over Ukraine?
Russia is waaaaaay superior to the Brits.
Yeah and if the Brits decide to pop off one of their 225 nukes over Moscow, the UK will cease to exist. Russia has 1600 strategic nukes that they admit to and god knows how many tactical and theater nukes.
Brits are a pipsqueak. The falklands war is utterly beyond their reach today.
They sure don’t have the ability to fight in the Black Sea or on eastern front battlefields of WWII.
But your comment is a good illustration of why NATO should stop screwing around on Russia’s borders.
Like, you know, the guy authorizing the attack on Moscow.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
LOL. They are nowhere near London.

I lost my sympathy for the Ukraine when they conspired with steele to create false intel on DJT.
Oh, bullsh!t. It would take at least an hour!
In fact, there are realistic contingency plans to wipe out the UK without her retaliation.
Let Russia have Ukraine—Its not worth one life. BUT Putin will not act until the USA is distracted. Then the Axis of Evil will act—Russia takes Ukraine, China takes Taiwan (and Islands) Iran rolls into southern Iraq (Sumerian Islamic Republic) and North Korea moves on South Korea. ALL ON THE SAME DAY!
Isn't Ukraine a US State Dept. vassal state? Or it was, and the State Dept. is angling to get it back in their clutches?
Do not doubt Vladimir Putin. He has that KGB frankness the CIA has yet to discern.
We can expect a ship being sunk in the Black Sea soon.
Who’s ship? Dunno, but there will be someone going down.
What’s that accomplish? WAR.
This is all just scaremongering. Putin gains nothing by attacking Ukraine and Ukraine gains nothing by attacking crimea.
Another example is Ukraine getting most of its diesel fuel for the military from Russia. It comes through Belarus, but if Russia wanted to, it would easily cut it. But it doesn’t, not even during peak military action in 2014-15. And of course Russia supplies most of oil, gas, coal to the rest of the sphere’s of Ukraine, electricity in deficit times. And Ukraine exports equipment for Russian military. Not directly, but through all kinds of buffer countries, but some Swedish researches uncovered it and screeching ensued.
