Putin is testing new hyper-shall rocket: escalation in the Ukraine conflict!

Russia's latest ballistics rocket attack on Ukraine causes excitement!

In a dramatic step, President Vladimir Putin confirmed that Russia tested the new hyper -shaped medium -range rocket Oreshnik in attack on the Ukrainian city of Dnipro. This nuclear-capable weapon, which has not yet been mentioned in public, was used in response to the recent attacks by Ukraine with US and UK-supplied rockets on Russian territory. The Kremlin explains that this offensive is a direct reaction to the escalation of the conflict, which now lasts for almost three years.

The Oreshnik, which is based on the intercontinental ballistic rocket RS-26 Rubenzh, can be equipped with three to six explosive heads and reaches speeds of 5. Military experts report that the rocket has several independent explosive heads, which makes it extremely difficult to catch them. Putin bripped that modern air defense systems are unable to intercept such rockets and announced that Russia is considering stationing further medium-sized and short-range missiles, depending on the promotions of the USA and its allies.

Putin's warning and the reaction of Ukraine

In an unforeseen television speech, Putin explained that the attack on Dnipro was successful and served as a test for one of the latest Russian medium -range rocket systems. In the meantime, Ukraine described the attack as a clear escalation and reports that an intercontinental ballistic rocket (ICBM) was fired on Dnipro together with other rockets, with two civilians being injured. The Ukrainian authorities stated that the rocket from the 4th rocket test site in the Astrachan region was fired in Russia and needed 15 minutes to reach Dnipro.

In the middle of this tense situation, NATO will hold an emergency meeting with Ukraine in Brussels on Tuesday to advise on the use of the Oreshnik rocket about Moscow. This shows how serious the situation is and how the western allies have to react to the aggressive military strategy of Russia.
