Ukraine worried about strengthening defense against new Russian missiles

"The Ukrainian Defense Ministry has been holding meetings with partners on new air defense systems that can protect people's lives from new threats," he said about the Oreshnik medium-range hypersonic missile that Russia attacked in Dnipro on November 21.

Speaking at a meeting with senior defense officials, leaders of defense enterprises and weapons developers in Moscow on November 22, Russian President Vladimir Putin affirmed that the Oreshnik missile has been officially put into service with the Russian military and that Moscow will continue testing it, "including in combat environments, depending on the situation and security threats to Russia."

During the meeting, Commander of the Russian Strategic Missile Forces Sergei Karakayev declared that the Oreshnik missile can attack any target across Europe, including heavily protected targets.

In an interview with Al Arabiya on November 22, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said that the Oreshnik missile will change the course of Russia's special military campaign in Ukraine.
