A top Russian diplomat has issued a warning to NATO, saying they are dealing with a nuclear power and should not threaten Moscow

It follows previous warnings from President Putin’s Chief Spokesperson who says Russia would consider using nuclear weapons against an “existential threat.”

“If Russia is provokes by NATO, if Russia is attacked by Ukraine, I don’t know, we are a nuclear power, why not” Dmitry Polyanskiy says.

The diplomat was then asked by the reporter interviewing him, whether this was an appropriate thing to say.

“I don’t think it’s the right thing to be saying but it’s not the right thing to threaten Russia and try to interfere,” Mr Polyanskiy says.

“When you’re dealing with a nuclear power, of course you have to calculate all the possible outcomes of your behaviour.”

Meanwhile, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has sent out a powerful message on Wednesday night.

He says the war is not just a war against Ukraine but a war against freedom.

“This is only the beginning for Russia on the Ukrainian land, Russia is trying to defeat the freedom of all people in Europe and people of the world,” Mr Zelensky says.

“It’s trying to show that only crude and cruel force matters.”

ABC Facebook page hacked, porn star images briefly posted before being removed and security measures launched

In Short:
– ABC News Facebook page was briefly hacked, displaying an explicit photo of Bonnie Blue for 20 minutes.
– An investigation was launched after unauthorised access to a staff account led to the incident.

The ABC News Facebook page experienced a brief hack on Tuesday, featuring an explicit cover photo of adult model and OnlyFans star Bonnie Blue. The photo, showing Blue kneeling with her name written across her forehead, was displayed for approximately 20 minutes before being removed.

An ABC spokesperson confirmed the incident was due to unauthorised access to a staff account. Following the incident, the Facebook page was left without a cover photo. Other content posted included a glossy headshot of fellow adult entertainer Lily Phillips and a humorous image of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.

The ABC promptly secured their Facebook page following the unauthorised access. An investigation into the breach has been launched to improve security measures.

Security Response

Many reactions followed the posts during their brief availability. Comments included jokes about new hosts for the cancelled series Q&A. Blue gained notoriety in 2025 for claiming to set a world record by engaging with 1,057 men in a single day.

Her plans for a controversial Schoolies event in 2024 led to her being banned from Australia after a public petition garnered significant support.

The cover photo used was sourced from the artwork for ‘Bonnie Blu,’ a single by American rapper Lil Mabu.
