Kremlin says hypersonic missile strike on Ukraine was a warning to the west
The Kremlin said on Friday that a strike on Ukraine using a newly developed hypersonic ballistic missile was designed to warn the west that Moscow will respond to moves by the US and the UK to let Kyiv strike Russia with their missiles.
According to Agence France-Presse (AFP), the Kremlin spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, was speaking a day after Russian president, Vladimir Putin, said Moscow had fired the new missile – the Oreshnik or ‘hazel tree’- at a Ukrainian military facility.
Peskov said Russia had not been obliged to warn the US about the strike, but had informed the US 30 minutes before the launch anyway. Putin remained open to dialogue, Peskov said.
First ICBM ever used in conflict according to some military bloggers on twitter Twitter.
how sad is that
Honey wake up, Russia’s weekly nuke threat just dropped
Hey wake up, an ignorant wasp is once again trivializing the threat of nuclear holocaust.

Last I checked it was NATO that started launching missiles into Russia escalating the conflict, but do go on champ.
I suppose it’s also NATOs fault Russia invaded Ukraine in the first place?
Yes, as many western experts explained in great detail for many decades now. Yet, we still have ignoramuses running around pretending that’s not the case. Even Stoltenberg has admitted this on record at this point, time to update your script
He wanted us to sign that promise, never to enlarge NATO. He wanted us to remove our military infrastructure in all Allies that have joined NATO since 1997, meaning half of NATO, all the Central and Eastern Europe, we should remove NATO from that part of our Alliance, introducing some kind of B, or second class membership. We rejected that. So he went to war to prevent NATO, more NATO, close to his borders.
He can get fucked.
nick, my dude. Save your sanity.
Most everyone here agrees that ‘Y’ sucks, and you can’t reason with em
“We didn’t accept his demands for how we protect member states so he went to war” isn’t the defense you seem to think it is
One problem being that Ukraine isn’t a member state. 🤡
Any time you end a thought with “so therefore threatening nuclear holocaust is justified” you’re the bad guys.
The fact that you don’t understand how idiotic that statement is says volumes about you. Imagine for a second what would happened if Russia started lobbing missiles into Florida from Cuba. Oh wait, we don’t have to imagine we know exactly what would happen. Killer clowns like you are gonna be the reason our civilization ends.
in this scenario, does florida invade cuba first?
Burgerland already occupies part of Cuban territory, so the invasion is just frozen at this point.
The USA literally has a torture camp in Cuba with admittedly innocent people being held for life.
I swear to god Americans know more about the Marvel movies than about their fucking state.
Nah the end of our civilization will be the dogs that roll over to daddy Putin like you.
That’s right, the grotesque excuse for a civilization that the rabid dogs in the west built is coming to an end.
There is no threat at all, russia is just trying to bluff a stronger position ahead of inevitable negotiation rounds. To claim more benefits and more territory. They won’t be doing anything against the US no matter what. Maximum cut some underwater cables and tell more nuclear threats like they always do.
What would we ever do without such stellar geopolitical analysis by geniuses such as yourself.
still cracks me up how north korea is more significant than putins russia.
still cracks me up how people can gobble up utter nonsense uncritically
