The warning, made on Russian state TV, targets the Rzeszów airbase, a key NATO hub. With Tomahawks capable of striking deep inside Russia, the Kremlin fears a major shift in the war. But experts say the U.S. is unlikely to deliver the missiles due to technical and logistical hurdles. So is this a real threat or just political posturing? Watch to find out what's really at stake.

00:00A Russian lawmaker just threatened to bomb a NATO country, and the world is watching.

00:04On Russian state TV, MP Alexei Zhuravlyov warned that if the U.S. sends Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine,

00:11Moscow could strike Poland's Rzezo military hub in response.

00:14That's a direct threat against a NATO member, a move that could spiral fast.

00:19Why does this matter?

00:20Tomahawk missiles can fly over 1,600 miles.

00:23That means Ukraine could potentially hit deep inside Russian territory.

00:27It's a game-changing weapon, and the Kremlin knows it.

00:31But there's a catch.

00:32Experts say it's unlikely the U.S. will actually send them.

00:36Tomahawks are usually launched from Navy ships or submarines.

00:39And Ukraine simply doesn't have the right platforms.

00:42Still, the threat alone is sparking fear.

00:45Putin's allies say the move could crush U.S.-Russia relations,

00:49and even pressure Germany to send its own long-range Taurus missiles.

00:53But others say this is just political theater.

00:55Trying to scare the West from taking one more step.

00:58Is this real escalation, or just a warning shot echoing on TV?

01:02Either way, the message is clear.

01:04The stakes are only getting higher.
