Abstract

The article reports that Ukraine claims Russia launched an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) at the city of Dnipro, marking a significant escalation in hostilities. The missile, reportedly launched from Astrakhan, traveled around 1,000 kilometers. Ukraine's President Zelenskiy described the missile as a "new" weapon with ICBM capabilities, prompting concerns and calls for air defense systems from Western allies. The use of an ICBM has raised fears of further escalation and damage, with reports of power outages and damage to infrastructure in the region. [Extracted from the article]
