VLADIMIR PUTIN READY TO FIRE "SATAN 2"

RUSSIA is ready to fire its new “Satan 2” nuclear weapon that can beat any missile shield deployed by the West.

Vladimir Putin’s long rumoured super weapon is due to be test before the end of the year.

Dubbed the Satan 2 by NATO, the weapon has long been rumoured and talked up as being capable of destroying an area as big as France.

The 100-ton ICBM will carry up to 15 nuclear warheads – each capable of hypersonic speeds of 4,000mph.

Last year, first pictures were released of the Satan 2 – official name the RS-28 Sarmat.

Now, Russian state media reports the weapon will be tested before the end of 2017.

Kremlin engineers are said to be aiming to deploy the Satan 2 ready for war before the end of 2020.

The RS-28 will replace Russia’s current arsenal of SS-18s, called Satans.

It is said to have range of up to 7,000 miles and can “speed past every missile defence system in existence”.

The RS-28 will be tested at the Plesetsk Cosmodrome, north western Russia, before the end of the year.

Individual warheads strapped to the Satan 2 will have yields of up to 750kt – 50 times more powerful than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima.

And remember, this missile will have up to 15 of them.

Russia had been expected to test-fire the weapon over the summer but state media reported launch silos were not ready for the weapon.

Last year, Russia tested a hypersonic nuclear warheadknown as “Object 4202”.

The warhead – also known as a Hypersonic Glider Vehicle – is being specifically designed to top the Satan 2.

Russia’s latest nuclear development comes as Donald Trump wants to increase the US arsenal tenfold, according to reports.

But Trump was quick to deny this on Twitter, labelling the reports "fake news".

Daily Star Online revealed which side Putin would take if the US went to war with North Korea.

GHADDAFI'S SON CONFIRMS TO RUN FOR LIBYAN PRESIDENCY IN 2018.

After spending the last six years incarcerated by a militia in the wake of the systemic destruction of Libya by NATO-backed forces in 2011, the second son of slain Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, confirmed that he will run for president of Libya in 2018. Through family spokesman Basem al-Hashimi al-Soul, Gaddafi confirmed to Egyptian television that he plans on running in what will likely be a tenuous election in the highly fragmented state. According to his spokesman, “Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, the son of the former Libyan president, enjoys the support of major tribes in Libya so he can run for the upcoming presidential elections due in 2018." “Saif al-Islam plans to impose more security and stability in accordance with the Libyan geography and in coordination with all Libyan factions”.

MALARIA VACCINE PROVES HIGHLY EFFECTIVE IN BURKINA FASO.

A vaccine against malaria has been shown to be highly effective in trials in Africa, holding out the real possibility of slashing the death toll of a disease that kills 400,000 mostly small children every year. The vaccine, developed by scientists at the Jenner Institute of Oxford University, showed up to 77% efficacy in a trial of 450 children in Burkina Faso over 12 months. The hunt for a malaria vaccine has been going on the best part of a century. One, the Mosquirix vaccine developed by GlaxoSmithKline, has been through lengthy clinical trials but is only partially effective, preventing 39% of malaria cases and 29% of severe malaria cases among small children in Africa over four years. It is being piloted by the World Health Organization in parts of Kenya, Ghana and Malawi. The Oxford vaccine is the first to meet the WHO goal of 75% efficacy against the mosquito-borne parasite disease. Larger trials are now beginning, involving 4,800 children in four countries. Prof ...

"CLEAR SIMILARITIES"

Black box data recovered from an Ethiopian Airlines plane that crashed last week show "clear similarities" with a recent crash in Indonesia of the same type of aircraft, Ethiopia's transport minister said on Sunday. While declining to give details, Dagmawit Moges told journalists the parallels would be the "subject of further study during the investigation," with a preliminary report issued in "30 days". The announcement came a week after Ethiopian Airlines flight 302 plummeted into a field southeast of Addis Ababa minutes into its flight to Nairobi, killing all 157 people onboard. The disaster caused the worldwide grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft involved after aviation regulators noticed similarities with the October crash of an Indonesian Lion Air 737 MAX 8 that killed all 189 passengers and crew. Both planes reportedly experienced erratic steep climbs and descents as well as fluctuating airspeeds before crashing sh...

MOURINHO SACKED BY MANCHESTER UNITED AFTER WORST START IN 28 YEARS.

Manchester, ENGLAND: José Mourinho has been sacked as Manchester United manager following Sunday’s defeat at Liverpool, ending a tenure that began in May 2016. United finally lost patience with a head coach who was not adhering to the club’s core attacking values and who had overseen their worst start to a campaign for 28 years. Mourinho was also relieved of his duties due to a transfer spend of around £400m on 11 players that, it is understood, the club insist were all the Portuguese’s choice. In addition to the disquiet regarding the side’s stultifying style, there was further disappointment at Mourinho’s development and improvement of United’s younger players. The club also took into account the growing unhappiness from fans at the direction of the club under Mouinho. It is understood the compensation due to Mourinho will be no more than £15m. Michael Carrick will take charge of training on Tuesday, before an interim boss is appointed. That move is expected to happen ...
