On November 21, Russia used the latest Russian medium-range hypersonic missile system "Oreshnik" in a non-nuclear version to strike the Dnieper , Putin said.
According to him, there are no air defense systems capable of shooting down such missiles.
He called the use of the Oreshnik a response to Western long-range strikes on the Russian Federation and to US plans to produce and deploy medium- and short-range missiles.
He stated that the Russian Federation “will warn civilians in advance in the event of the use of systems such as Oreshnik.”
Zin Note: Apologies, it turns out this wasn't really an ICBM or RS-26. Much of the earlier reports on this strike turned out to be incorrect.
