We are aware that they are under development.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But he added, \u201cwe have this system now. And this is important.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Testing the missile will continue, \u201cincluding in combat, depending on the situation and the character of security threats created for Russia,\u201d Putin said, noting there is \u201da stockpile of such systems ready for use.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Putin said that while it isn\u2019t an intercontinental missile, it\u2019s so powerful that the use of several of them fitted with conventional warheads in one attack could be as devastating as a strike with strategic \u2014 or nuclear \u2014 weapons.<\/p>\n<p>Gen. Sergei Karakayev, head of Russia\u2019s Strategic Missile Forces, said the Oreshnik could reach targets across Europe and be fitted with nuclear or conventional warheads, echoing Putin\u2019s claim that even with conventional warheads, \u201cthe massive use of the weapon would be comparable in effect to the use of nuclear weapons.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov kept up Russia\u2019s bellicose tone on Friday, blaming \u201cthe reckless decisions and actions of Western countries\u201d in supplying weapons to Ukraine to strike Russia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Russian side has clearly demonstrated its capabilities, and the contours of further retaliatory actions in the event that our concerns were not taken into account have also been quite clearly outlined,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<p>Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orb\u00e1n, widely seen as having the warmest relations with the Kremlin in the European Union, echoed Moscow\u2019s talking points, suggesting the use of U.S.-supplied weapons in Ukraine likely requires direct American involvement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese are rockets that are fired and then guided to a target via an electronic system, which requires the world\u2019s most advanced technology and satellite communications capability,\u201d Orb\u00e1n said on state radio. \u201cThere is a strong assumption \u2026 that these missiles cannot be guided without the assistance of American personnel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Orb\u00e1n cautioned against underestimating Russia\u2019s responses, emphasizing that the country\u2019s recent modifications to its nuclear deployment doctrine should not be dismissed as a \u201cbluff.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s not a trick\u2026 there will be consequences,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Separately in Kyiv, Czech Foreign Minister Jan Lipavsk\u00fd called Thursday\u2019s missile strike an \u201cescalatory step and an attempt of the Russian dictator to scare the population of Ukraine and to scare the population of Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At a news conference with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha, Lipavsk\u00fd also expressed his full support for delivering the necessary additional air defense systems to protect Ukrainian civilians from the \u201cheinous attacks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He underlined that the Czech Republic will impose no limits on the use of its weapons and equipment given to Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>Three lawmakers from Ukraine\u2019s parliament, the Verkhovna Rada, confirmed that Friday\u2019s previously scheduled session was called off due to the ongoing threat of Russian missiles targeting government buildings in central Kyiv.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, there also was a recommendation to limit the work of all commercial offices and nongovernmental organizations \u201cin that perimeter, and local residents were warned of the increased threat,\u201d said lawmaker Mykyta Poturaiev, who added this is not the first time such a threat has been received.<\/p>\n<p>President Volodymyr Zelenskyy\u2019s office continued to work in compliance with standard security measures, a spokesperson said. <\/p>\n<p>Ukraine\u2019s Main Intelligence Directorate said the Oreshnik missile, whose name in Russian means \u201chazelnut tree,\u201d was fired from the Kapustin Yar 4th Missile Test Range in Russia\u2019s Astrakhan region, and flew 15 minutes before striking Dnipro.<\/p>\n<p>Test launches of a similar missile were conducted in October 2023 and June 2024, the directorate said. The Pentagon confirmed the missile was a new, experimental type of intermediate-range missile based on its RS-26 Rubezh intercontinental ballistic missile. <\/p>\n<p>Thursday\u2019s attack struck the Pivdenmash plant that built ICBMs when Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union. The military facility is located about 4 miles (6 1\/2 kilometers) southwest of the center of Dnipro, a city of about 1 million that is Ukraine\u2019s fourth-largest and a key hub for military supplies and humanitarian aid, and is home to one of the country\u2019s largest hospitals for treating wounded soldiers from the front before their transfer to Kyiv or abroad.<\/p>\n<p>The stricken area was cordoned off and out of public view. With no fatalities reported from the attack, Dnipro residents resorted to dark humor on social media, mostly focused on the missile\u2019s name, Oreshnik.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere in Ukraine, Russia struck a residential district of Sumy overnight with Iranian-designed Shahed drones, killing two people and injuring 13, the regional administration said..<\/p>\n<p>Ukraine\u2019s Suspilne media, quoting Sumy regional head Volodymyr Artiukh, said the drones were stuffed with shrapnel elements. \u201cThese weapons are used to destroy people, not to destroy objects,\u201d said Artiukh, according to Suspilne.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014\u2014 Associated Press journalists Lorne Cook in Brussels, Samya Kullab in Kyiv, Dasha Litvinova in Tallinn, Estonia, and Justin Spike in Budapest, Hungary, contributed.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014\u2014 Follow AP\u2019s coverage of the war in Ukraine at <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\"><a class=\"Link AnClick-LinkEnhancement\" data-gtm-enhancement-style=\"LinkEnhancementA\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/russia-ukraine\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/russia-ukraine<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n  window.fbAsyncInit = function() {\n      FB.init({\n              appId : '870613919693099',\n          xfbml : true,\n          version : 'v2.9'\n      });\n  };\n  (function(d, s, id){\n     var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n     if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}\n     js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\n     js.src = \"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js\";\n     fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n   }(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/russia-ukraine-war-missile-parliament-d374dc8ca0fa626e674d29df01ce95cd\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KYIV, Ukraine (AP) \u2014 NATO and Ukraine will hold emergency talks Tuesday after Russia attacked a central city with an experimental, hypersonic ballistic missile that escalated the nearly 33-month-old war. &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/?p=128991\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-128991","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-world","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/128991","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=128991"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/128991\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=128991"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=128991"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=128991"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
