]]> WORLD War 3 fears are growing after Russia rushed to back Iran in the Middle East’s escalating nuclear crisis – a move which plunges Vladimir Putin into a deadly standoff with Donald Trump.

Last night  fired rockets into Israeli-occupied territory in the Golan Heights, prompting a ferocious response from Israel.

Israel pummelled “nearly all” of Iran’s military infrastructure in Syria, with world leaders calling for calm as the two states exchange missiles.

The clash came after  pulled the United States from the Iran nuclear agreement – a decision he said was necessary to avoid a “nuclear arms race in the Middle East” but which his critics argue has already badly destabilized the region.

In the immediate aftermath of the announcement, Iran promised a “fierce” response on his rivals including Israel, while Saudi Arabia said they would build their own nuclear weapons if Tehran did.

World War 3: Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump are going head-to-head over Iran.

Russia’s foreign ministry said the Kremlin will maintain close coordination on nuclear issues with Iran despite the US quitting the international agreement.

In stark contrast, the White House condemned Iran’s “provocative rocket attacks” from Syria and said it supported Israel’s right to defend itself.

A White House statement said: “The Iranian regime’s deployment into Syria of offensive rocket and missile systems aimed at Israel is an unacceptable and highly dangerous development for the entire Middle East.”

Israel said 20 Iranian Grad and Fajr rockets were shot down by its Iron Dome air defence system or did not reach targets in the occupied Golan Heights, territory captured from Syria in a 1967 war.

The Quds Force, an external arm of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, carried out the rocket salvo, Israel said.

Iran and Israel were already drawing deeper into confrontation before Mr Trump pulled the US out of the deal, but his move has shaken up the region.

Within Iran, the US withdrawal could empower hardliners while weakening the moderate camp that has sought better relations with the West.

Today Israel accused Iran of crossing “red lines”, warning of further missile strikes if necessary.

The alarming development comes after Russia deployed short-range missiles to a port city on the Baltic Sea, in a move that was described as a “threat to half of all Europeans”.

Mr Borosov told journalists at the Zvezda Shipyard in Russia’s Far East that he expects the four upgraded subs by 2021.

An Omsk nuclear submarine could also be added to the Pacific Fleet this year, after it was scheduled to receive the ship in 2019.

The Zvezda Shipyard, a large shipbuilding and engineering complex, will soon start work on repairing and upgrading Project 955 Borei-class nuclear submarines.

Russia’s state news agency Tass has also reported that the country’s Antey nuclear-powered submarine will be upgraded with Kalibr cruise missiles.

Vladimir Putin’s military has developed 11 subs in this class with his Navy currently operating just eight of them.

Each submarine has 24 Granit cruise missile launchers and six torpedo tubes.

Dalia Grybauskaitė, the President of Lithuania, revealed yesterday that Russia has permanently deployed Iskander missiles to the port city of Kaliningrad – a slice of Russia sandwiched between Lithuania and Poland.

Russia has said this “should hardly be cause for anyone to worry” and that it can station weapons wherever it wants on its own territory.

Moscow has not officially confirmed the placement of the missiles but a spokesman has acknowledged it.

Russia has temporarily stationed missiles there before.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said: “(This) is exclusively a sovereign issue for the Russian Federation.

“Russia has never threatened anyone and is not threatening anyone.”

Baltic countries are already within range of longer-range Russian missiles.

Reports of the Kaliningrad deployment so near to NATO territory are seen as a threat at time when when tensions are already high.

Russia hosted the Zapad military games last year which were designed to simulate an invasion of Europe.

In reference to the Iskander missile deployment, President Grybauskaitė said: “This again makes the situation even more serious because Iskanders in Kaliningrad means dangers for half of European capitals.”

Latvian foreign minister Edgars Rinkēvičs said the deployment has increased the important of discussions inside NATO about improving its capabilities.

He said: “It means that what we have been talking about – the necessity to discuss strengthening air-defence elements during the NATO summit in July; strengthening the chain of command, to talk about many questions that affect defence of our region and Latvia specifically – it all has been confirmed by the practical actions of Russia.”

Russia has long said it would place the missiles in Kaliningrad in respond to a US missile shield being developed in Eastern Europe.

The US has claimed the shield is being developed to counter potential attacks from Iran.

A NATO official said on condition of anonymity: “Any deployment close to our borders of missiles that can carry nuclear warheads does not help to lower tensions.

“In the spirit of transparency, we look forward to hearing more from Russia on this.

“It is important to determine the exact situation. NATO is alert, we understand the capability, but we also understand that the Russians have been moving equipment in and out of Kaliningrad for a long time.”
