The Ukrainian government claims that the Armed Forces of Ukraine now possess a ballistic missile with a range of 500 kilometers that can fly at ‘hypersonic speeds.’ Regardless of the accuracy of this claim, it should be taken seriously. Kyiv reportedly claims that work on the ‘Grom-2’ missile program is ongoing. Since Ukraine cannot finance it alone, European countries, particularly the United Kingdom, Germany, and possibly France, are most likely supporting the development.
Previously, the UK and France discussed transferring tactical nuclear weapons to Kyiv. However, a nuclear warhead alone is meaningless without an effective means of delivering the payload to the required range. If the Ukrainian missile proves effective, discussions about providing Ukraine with nuclear weapons may resume. Therefore, Russia may take preemptive action to destroy Ukraine’s military-industrial complex.
On the night of April 14, Russian Geran-2 strike drones targeted sites in the Odesa, Dnipropetrovsk, and Sumy regions. Reports indicate a second strike on the Vsesvit Oil depot in the Dnipropetrovsk region. The first strikes on this oil depot occurred a day earlier. Oil storage terminals in Odesa were also hit.
Despite the Ground Forces Command’s deployment of reserves to the Sumy region, Ukrainian forces have not yet stabilized the situation. The Russian army is launching attacks along virtually the entire length of the region’s border, creating numerous flashpoints. According to reports from April 14, Russian assault groups are attempting to capture the village of Novodmitrovka.
In the Slavyansk sector, the city of Konstantinovka is one of the most critical areas. Significant Russian combat aviation forces are focused on striking this settlement. The heaviest FAB-3000 aerial bombs are being deployed there. The primary objective is to destroy high-rise buildings and underground structures where Ukrainian troops may be hiding.
As Russian units penetrate deeper into the city, the area under their control is expanding, but establishing full control does not yet appear possible. Due to the high level of combat drone activity, operating large groups of personnel is extremely difficult and results in increased casualties.
Despite the constant counterattacks by Ukrainian units, the Ukrainian Armed Forces are gradually losing the ability to advance further into the city and are suffering significant personnel losses during their movements from Druzhkivka.
Meanwhile, the operational situation remains tense on the flanks. Ukrainian forces continue to hold Chervone and are launching counterattacks in the Chasov Yar area, which Russian forces have not yet fully captured.

this weapon is not ukrainian origin. it will not here to bring peace, but more war and destruction. is this to invoke russia to widen the contact line ? a terrifying time for the living
don’t get your knickers in a twist sister just because war looks likely to involve you
a country that lacks the will to blow up bridges wont use nuclear weapons in a proactive manner either. like it or not putin is a bag of hot air.
it’s there to invoke russia into turning ukraine into a total wasteland against its will, unlike trumpstein and hegehog who do such things ‘for fun’ while in drunken stupors.

technically speaking all they had to do is get their hands on a somewhat intact russian hypersonic missile and with the help of nato nations and israel who got their hands on parts of iranian hypersonic missiles, reverse engineer them and give them to the ukraine. essentially you gave them the technology that they didn’t have before, and on the other hand there’s not much in the nato inventory that russia doesn’t already posses or surpass.
only problem with that is that neither ukraine, nato or israel has the know-how to produce a functioning hypersonic. if they did they would already have used it. they only know how to lie, cheat and steal….
all ballistic missiles are hypersonic on re-entry. what is supposed to be the trick is being able to maneuver at hypersonic speeds.
russia doesn’t have even 10% of what the usa has conventionally, no satellite constellation, no real navy, no aircraft carriers, no real army, no economic sovereignty. obama was disgusting but putin really should have controlled himself instead of acting out so much.
if you believe the article why hasn’t russia hit the uke mic yet?
why hasn’t russia blown up the bridges across the dneiper? why doesn’t russia control the east bank? why doesn’t russia have air superiority? why can’t russia stop low speed drone attacks on its refineries after four years of war? lots of questions about russian military capibility.
they should name this one after another bird, like they did with the flamingo. let’s call this one the oozlum bird, which, according to legend, takes off in ever-decreasing circles until it vanishes completely by flying up its own backside….
lame duck or albatross necklace would be my two votes.
there’s a story going around that they painted that thing pink because they threw all the different paint they had laying around into a bucket and it came out pink. i suspect they did that with old spare parts from different soviet missile systems they had laying around too. pretty appropriate for a frankenstein regime, i’d say.
how many times have i told you all russia isn’t serious
why hasn’t russia destroyed the ukranian industrial military complex yet?
because it’s not in ukraine, einstein.
the russians don’t even bother destroying the port in odessa or the tunnel leading to hungry and the eu.
the more the russian oligarchy behaves like passive homosexuals the worse the entire situation with the collective west becomes
after 250,000 years of human history russia invented a new form of warfare where you whine a lot about your enemy attempts to fight back while simultaneously attempting to do as little as possible to decisively deal with the situation yourself. putin is that kind genius.
before all this started ukraine wanted free gas and russia wanted to sell them gas. after all the sanctions, the western theiving, the massive damage, loss of life, and all the discounted gas and oil to india and china i’m kinda thinking it would have been more brotherly to give the ukrainians free gas as an incentive to be brotherly. especially when you are too cheap and lazy to have a real 1st world military.
