Kremlin Says It Fired New Hypersonic Missile, Not ICBM, in Attack on Dnipro, Ukraine

HeadlineNov 22, 2024

The Kremlin has denied claims by Ukraine that Russia used an intercontinental ballistic missile in an attack on the central Ukrainian city of Dnipro. On Thursday, Russian President Vladimir Putin said the attack had instead used a new type of intermediate-range hypersonic ballistic missile carrying nonnuclear payloads. The Kremlin called the strike a warning to the United States and United Kingdom for allowing Ukraine to fire U.S.- and British-made missiles at targets deep inside Russia.
