Three of the four trucks have nuclear missiles. The trucks were spotted on a road 1.5 km south of Glasgow city center. The agency said the weapons were being taken to the Royal Navy in Lock Long.
In the wake of the recent Russia-Ukraine war, New watch fears that weapons are being assembled as part of NATO's war preparations.
But did NATO start preparing for a nuclear war against Russia? A convoy was spotted on the road in Glasgow, Scotland's largest city, on Friday. There were four trucks in the middle of that convoy. An anti-nuclear watchdog called New watch claims that the trucks contained nuclear missiles.
The agency claims that three of the four trucks have a total of six nuclear weapons. The company claimed that a truck was empty. According to New watch, the army usually uses that road in the city to transport weapons. Earlier, in May 2021, the company saw a truck carrying nuclear missiles passing through that road.
Jane Talents, a member of the anti-nuclear group, said each truck could carry two nuclear weapons. A truck is left empty because if there is a problem with a track, that truck can be used. So since there are four trucks, it can be assumed that there are six missiles in each of the three trucks.
According to Jane, no more weapons have been seen on the road since October last year. But in the wake of the recent war, there remains a suspicion of nuclear weapons shipments.
One million people have been displaced by the ongoing war in Ukraine over Russia's aggression.
Filippo Grand, head of the UN refugee agency UNHCR, made the announcement in a tweet on Sunday.
"The war in Ukraine is so devastating that one million people have fled, either displaced within the country or taken out of the country" he tweeted.
Everywhere you look today, the tide of protectionist sentiment is flowing.
According to the United Nations, about 3.4 million refugees from Ukraine have sought refuge in neighboring countries since the February 24 Russian aggression. On the other hand, at least 7.5 million people have been displaced within the country.
Clashes between pro-Russian rebels and government forces in eastern Ukraine began on February 18. As a result, on February 21, Russia recognized the two rebel states, the Donetsk People's Republic and the Luhansk People's Republic, and sent troops to the region to maintain peace.
Later, on February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered a full-scale operation in Ukraine by Russian land, naval and air forces to support the pro-Russian rebels.
Putin describes Russia's aggression in Ukraine as a "special military operation." He claims to have carried out the operation to "democratize" and "liberate" Ukraine.
Russia offers to surrender to Ukrainian forces in the besieged city of Mariupol. Ukraine has rejected the offer.
Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister Irina Vereshchuk has rejected an offer to surrender to Russian forces in Mariupol. "There is no question of surrender," he said.
In an interview with Ukraine's Pravda, Vereshchuk said Russian forces were demanding surrender before allowing the evacuation of civilians.
"Russia wants to take us hostage and fulfill their demands," he said.
