Putin threatens to strike Ukraine again with Russia’s new Oreshnik ballistic missile after wave of attacks on energy
CNNKyiv, Ukraine CNN — Russian President Vladimir Putin has threatened to strike Ukraine again with a new nuclear-capable ballistic missile following Moscow’s latest widespread attack on critical energy infrastructure. He also warned he would consider further launches of Russia’s new “Oreshnik” medium-range ballistic missile, first fired at Ukraine’s Dnipro region last week. REUTERS/Gleb Garanich Gleb Garanich/Reuters Putin claimed the missile can get around air defense systems and if several warheads are used together, “the force of the strike will be comparable to the use of nuclear weapons.” “Everything that is in the epicenter of the explosion is divided into fractions, into elementary particles, essentially turning into dust,” Putin said, adding that the missile “has no nuclear charge.” The Russian missile attack on Dnipro was not armed with nuclear warheads, but it used a weapon designed for nuclear delivery to instead launch conventional weapons. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the use of the new missile was “a clear and severe escalation in the scale and brutality of this war.” ‘Every winter is getting harder’ Ukraine’s energy system came “under massive enemy attack,” overnight, Energy Minister German Halushchenko said Thursday.
