Ukraine investigates debris from new Russian ballistic missile strike in Dnipro

Ukrainian investigators are examining debris from a new Russian intermediate-range ballistic missile that struck Dnipro on November 21. This marks the first use of such a powerful weapon in the conflict. The missile, named Oreshnik, reportedly reached speeds over 13,000 kph. Experts are analyzing the wreckage to understand Russian military capabilities and develop countermeasures. Initial assessments confirm the missile's ballistic nature and note civilian damage, but further study is needed for detailed conclusions. The Kremlin stated the missile was aimed at a military target in response to Ukraine's use of Western-made missiles. Russian President Vladimir Putin announced plans to continue testing the missile in combat.
