President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed that Russia today used a new missile, which according to its characteristics is an intercontinental ballistic weapon, he said in his address.

“All characteristics – speed, height – of intercontinental ballistic. Examinations are now underway,” the post states.

Zelenskyi added that Ukraine celebrates the Day of Dignity and Freedom on November 21.

“Today, our crazy neighbor once again showed what he really is and how he despises dignity, freedom, and people’s lives in general. And how afraid he is. He is so afraid that he is already using new missiles. And he is looking around the world for other places to find weapons: now in Iran, now in North Korea,” the president emphasized.

In the morning, the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces reported that Russian troops attacked the Dnipro with various types of missiles, including launching an intercontinental ballistic missile. No details were provided regarding the use of an intercontinental ballistic missile by Russian troops in the Armed Forces. There are no reactions to this from the West, as well as official messages from Russia.

During a press briefing on November 21, Maria Zakharova, the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, was called and asked not to comment on the statements about the intercontinental ballistic missile of the Russian Federation launched over Ukraine.

According to the local authorities, an industrial enterprise was damaged in Dnipro as a result of the strike, two fires also broke out in the city, and two people were injured.

Subsequently, the diplomatic missions of Spain, Italy and Greece also announced the closure for visitors on November 20.

Against this background, social networks spread information about the possibility of launching an attack on Ukraine with the RS-26 “Rubezh” ballistic missile. The launches were supposed to be from a training ground in the Astrakhan region. On November 20, such launches were not reported.

The Russian military regularly attacks Ukrainian regions with various types of weapons – attack UAVs, rockets, anti-aircraft missiles, and anti-aircraft missiles.

The leadership of Russia denies that the Russian army during a full-scale war inflicts targeted strikes on the civilian infrastructure of the cities and villages of Ukraine, killing the civilian population and destroying hospitals, schools, kindergartens, energy and water supply facilities.

Ukrainian authorities and international organizations qualify these strikes as war crimes committed by the Russian Federation and emphasize that they are targeted.
