If you look closely, you can see that they fall in several parts. This is the Russian military's attack on Dnipro in central Ukraine on the 21st of this month. Initially, the Ukrainian military said that they had been attacked by an ICBM (intercontinental ballistic missile), but Russian President Putin released a statement. Russian President Putin (21st) "The Russian military has tested the latest medium-range missile system. It is a non-nuclear hypersonic ballistic missile." He revealed that a newly developed medium-range ballistic missile flying at hypersonic speed was used to attack a Ukrainian munitions factory. Russia's reason for using the latest missiles is that the Ukrainian military used long-range missiles provided by the United States and the United Kingdom for the first time to attack Russian territory. President Putin said that the attack with the new missiles was a countermeasure, but... Russian President Putin (21st) "Ukraine's regional conflict has taken on a global character" Russia has previously used "hypersonic missiles" mounted on "fighter jets" against Ukraine. According to experts, this time it was a large one launched from the ground, with a warhead called MIRV (Multiple Independently Targeted Reaction Vehicles). Obara Bonji, a diplomatic and security specialist at the Sasakawa Peace Foundation, said, "MIRV means that it has multiple warheads. Multiple warheads mean that the warhead of one rocket can carry multiple submunitions, or child submunitions. This means that one missile can attack multiple targets, and each submunition can accurately determine its target and drop on it. This makes it extremely difficult to intercept. Each of these submunitions with multiple warheads can also be equipped with a nuclear bomb. If one missile can carry, say, 10 submunitions, that means 10 targets will be hit by nuclear attack at the same time." Putin also boasted about the performance of this new missile, saying that it flies at hypersonic speeds, 10 times the speed of sound, at 2 to 3 kilometers per second, making it impossible to intercept. In a statement after the missile launch, Putin warned the West and Ukraine that "if aggressive actions escalate, we will respond like a mirror." In response to the attack using the new missiles, Ukrainian President Zelensky strongly criticized Russia, saying, "Putin has once again taken steps to escalate and expand this war." The U.S. Department of Defense spokesman said, "We are concerned by this new type of highly lethal weapon being introduced into the battlefield." However, according to Reuters, a U.S. government official said that Russia only possesses a small number of these new missiles, and that they are not a game changer in the conflict.
