Russian tyrant Vladimir Putin says Russia has tested a new intermediate range missile in a strike on Ukraine which could one day be aimed at NATO enemies who supplied weapons

Putin addresses Russia after Ukraine hit by missile

Vladimir Putin has claimed Russia has tested a new intermediate range missile in a strike on Ukraine – and he warned he is prepared to use it again against the country’s enemies.

In a nationwide address on television as he made his first appearance in nearly two weeks, the tyrant said today’s strike was in response to Ukrainian strikes on the Russian territory with U.S. and British missiles earlier this week. Chillingly, he added Russia would issue advance warnings before firing on its enemies – to allow civilians to get to safety.

The new weapons, known as Oreshnik, attack at speeds of Mach 10 and travel around 3kms a second. He added not even the U.S would be capable of intercepting the Russian missiles.

He said in a statement: “I would like to inform the personnel of the Russian Armed Forces, the citizens of our country, our friends around the world, as well as those who continue to harbour illusions about the possibility of inflicting a strategic defeat on Russia, about the events taking place today in the SVO zone, namely after the use of long-range weapons of Western manufacture on our territory.”
