Hi,
I am not sure who to attribute this bunk to, either Alex Jones' Inforwars or to the man who made the original video but this article appeared on InfoWars today basically saying a Nuke was used by the Ukrainian army against the pro-Russian separatists.
At first I believed it and who knows what is in these things but it seems that the munition used was a bunker-buster and not a tactical nuke. I have included the video in question and some comparisons. It is clear to the naked eye alone that it is not a nuke. Even a tactical nuke.

Video from article.
Explosion from another angle.
Tactical nuke example - yes they can be any size really but they are generally not as localised as the Ukraine explosion was.
*Please do not think I am posting this to insult InfoWars. I like some of their reporting. But it does get very sensationalist at times. Even just plain misreported. They clearly know that sensationalism gets people talking and sharing. And sharing gets them lots of traffic from Google.
