What happened before:
- In the evening of November 21, the ruler of Russia, Vladimir Putin, said that during the morning attack on the Dnipro, the Russians used the Oreshnik medium-range missile.
- He also stated that after Ukraine struck with Western long-range weapons on the territory of the Russian Federation, the conflict acquired “elements of a global nature” and threatened to attack the countries that allowed strikes on Russia.
- President Volodymyr Zelenskyi reacted to the statement of the head of the Kremlin, Volodymyr Putin, about the use of the Oreshnik medium-range missile on the territory of Ukraine, noting that this is an obvious and serious increase in the scale and cruelty of this war and a cynical violation of the UN Charter by Russia.
