RUSSIA is staging major war games involving 3,000 troops and nuclear missiles after the Kremlin threatened a "target" in the West.
Vladimir Putin is flexing his military muscle with his "invincible weapons" in three regions, showcasing his nuclear-capable Yars rockets - one of Moscow's deadliest weapons.
It comes as Russia today threatened Sweden and Finland over joining Nato, saying it would make the Nordic countries a "legitimate target for Russian retaliatory measures, including those of a military nature".
Putin has aimed to make the mammoth Yars intercontinental ballistic missile system, which replaced the Topol, the mainstay of the ground-based component of Moscow's nuclear arsenal.
