Putin’s Hypersonic Test: Russia Strikes Back Amid Western Escalation


Russian President Vladimir Putin decided to up the ante with a hypersonic “non-nuclear” test.

This was a missile strike on Dnipro, casually calling it a successful “response” to Ukraine’s U.S.-made ATACMS hitting Russian targets.

It’s his way of saying, “We see your Western weapons, now check out these, intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM)”

Curious timing, all of this.

Just as Joe Biden is packing up his bags to leave the White House, they’re trying to provoke a World War.

Too bad, they’re not getting one.

Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs released a statement from Russian President Vladimir Putin addressing the Russian retaliatory strike against the Ukrainian city of Dnipro, where an Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) was used, and Western escalation of the conflict.

Putin said the IRBM used was a test with a nonnuclear hypersonic payload. It was a response to the Ukrainian strike with six U.S.-manufactured Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) targeting a weapons depot in the Bryansk region and a command-and-control center in Russia’s Kursk region:

As a response to the use of U.S. and UK manufactured weapons, the Russian forces have carried out a combined strike on one of the military-industrial facilities in Ukraine. This included the test of a novel, intermediate-range Russian missile system. A ballistic missile with a nonnuclear, hypersonic payload was used. The test was carried out successfully. The objectives of the launch have been met.

This commenter makes a great point!

Time to end all these warmongering agencies and federations:

Those in the UK are pointing out to Putin who the warmonger is.
