World War 3 panic after Russia ‘fires’ at Brit ship

Fears of World War Three were triggered after Russia allegedly opened fire at a British battleship.

Alerts were issued after Vladimir Putin’s Moscow bullyboys boasted they blasted missiles at the Royal Navy’s HMS Defender for entering its territory in the Black Sea.

A BBC crew on board the vessel insisted they heard the blasts, but UK defence officials scrambled to deny the incident.

They declared “no shots were fired” at the warship yesterday as it was on an “innocent passage” through Ukrainian waters. But Covid-weary people took to social media with the united plea: “We’re too tired for World War Three.”
