During the flights, which lasted over seven hours, the bombers were escorted by Su-30 and Su-35 fighter jets. The Tupolev Tu-95MS planes are capable of carrying nuclear weapons and Moscow regularly flies them over international waters in the Arctic, North Atlantic and Pacific as a show of strength. Russian Defence Ministry ministry said that none of the aircraft intruded into the airspace of any other country and that it strictly observed international law iwhile conducting the flights.

Reports have claimed that yesterday Russia used deadly Phosphorus bombs in the fighting near Bakhmut. Several reports claimed that the explosions in the war yesterday had released small, burning balls of white phosphorus that slowly fell to the ground… and those balls set fire to the vegetation on both sides of the road on a surface equivalent to the size of a football pitch. This isn’t the first time that Russia has allegedly used white phosphorous munitions in the war in Ukraine. Earlier in March last year, Ukraine had claimed that Moscow had used white phosphorus against civilians in his country. Then again in May 2022, Russian forces had reportedly used this kind of weaponry in their efforts to capture the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol. In this video, we take a quick look at these lethal Phosphorus bombs. But before that, don’t forget to like, share and subscribe to Oneindia.

The US has opened its first permanent military garrison in Poland. It follows last year’s pledge by President Joe Biden to establish a permanent base – America’s first on NATO’s eastern flank – in Poland following Russia’s invasion of neighbouring Ukraine. The new facility, considered the eighth US permanent military base in the European continent, will be located near Poznan, on the banks of the Varta River in western Poland. The garrison at Camp Kościuszko, is named after the 18th-century hero who fought for both Polish and US independence.

The BBC reports that the International
Criminal Court (ICC) has issued an arrest warrant
for Putin for "the unlawful deportation of children from Ukraine to Russia," among other things.
The court alleges that the crimes were committed from Feb. 23, 2022, onward.
Maria Lvova-Belova, Presidential Commissioner
for Children's Rights in the Russian
Federation, is wanted for the same crimes.
Moscow denies the claims and has
called the warrants "outrageous.".
The BBC reports that Lvova-Belova has previously spoken about indoctrinating Ukrainian children transported to Russia.
She also claims to have
adopted a teenage boy from Mariupol.

While the ICC doesn't have the power to arrest suspects, it can exercise jurisdiction within signatory countries.
Russia is not one of these countries,
so it is unlikely Putin will be extradited.
However, it could affect his ability to travel since other nations could assist in arresting him.
Andriy Kostin, Ukraine's Prosecutor General, called the warrants "historic for Ukraine and the entire international law system.".
Czech Foreign Minister Jan Lipavsky
also agreed with the ICC's warrants and
said that the Russian president must be
"put to trial for the crime of aggression.".
