NATO and Ukraine to hold emergency talks after Russia's hypersonic missile attack
NATO and Ukraine will hold emergency talks on Tuesday following Russia's recent attack on Dnipro with a new hypersonic missile, the Oreshnik. This missile, which can reach speeds of Mach 11, is said to carry multiple warheads. Russian President Vladimir Putin claimed the strike was retaliation for Ukraine's use of Western missiles. He announced plans to increase production of the Oreshnik missile, asserting its capabilities could rival nuclear weapons in impact. In response to the heightened threat, Ukraine's parliament canceled a session, and security measures were intensified in Kyiv. Meanwhile, Russia also targeted a residential area in Sumy with drones, resulting in casualties.
