G7 Leaders Mock Putin; Goat Triggers Blast That Hurt 30 Russians

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made fun of Russia’s President Vladimir Putin's “tough” persona as they met with other world leaders at the G7 summit in Schloss Elmau, Germany.

As press cameras filmed the group arriving for a roundtable discussion, Johnson proposed that they remove their coats and "show them our pecs" to demonstrate that they are "tougher than Putin," Storyful reported late on June 26, 2022.

"We're going to get the bare-chested horseback riding display," Trudeau added, referring to photographs published in 2009 of a topless Putin on horseback in Siberia.

The story came barely two days after Verity Bowman of The Telegraph of UK reported that the “Goat of Kyiv” triggered a booby trap of several grenades laid by Russian soldiers around a hospital in Zaporizhzhia, injuring no less than 40 troopers, many of them seriously.

No one knows what happened to the Ukrainian goat from the village of Kinski Rozdory.

It is not the first time an animal has made headlines for helping the Ukrainian resistance.

Patron, a Jack Russel terrier, was honored last month for locating nearly 200 explosive devices since the invasion began. Patron is working to eliminate the hazard of unexploded munitions in the Chernihiv region, north of Kyiv.

He has been working since he was six months old, paving the path for Ukrainians to safely return home without fear of additional injury or death.
